Hello, I inherited some bikes and they're too much for me to hold onto. I know minimal things about each one, but I'm looking to learn more so I can let go of them in the future. What could these be worth in their current state? Any help is appreciated, thank you in advance!

They are valuable and collectable.
My primary concern after looking at your pictures is how your paperwork looks? If you have titles that would allow you to register and insure the finished bikes they are more valuable than a red tape tangle bike would be.
Bikes with MSOs have become prohibitively expensive and complicated to get legal. Bikes without paperwork require expensive "bonded titles" that then become expensive or impossible to insure.
These bikes are from a much simpler time. That's a two edged sword though. Guys like me who can appreciate them are out of our bike building days.
I do agree and very much appreciate your decision to sell them. It will take resources beyond what you would ever recoup to try to get them running before the sale.
I would realistically approach the sale with if you come out a six pack ahead then it's a good thing.
Good luck.
Very interesting bikes.

bike 1 home built attempt, has a Evo based engine, S&S heads, open belt drive ridged chopper
Bike 2 is much older, probably mid late 70s has a kick start shovelhead for a engine: might be a low rider
bike 3 is another home built chopper with a Evo based engine, and the trans its missing the primary.
Hopefully you have some titles or MSO for the frame and engines
If you don't put the bikes together and get them in running condition, don't expect them to sell for much more than a rolling basket case will. If I'm looking at a bike to buy and it's not in running condition, I figure it's all going to have to be disassembled and inspected at minimum.
