The final cost (if sold out of japan) will be increased by costs involved importing and possibly taxes.
I can see the bike going for close to 20k by someone that will simply clean and display.

[[ If you were to buy it, is it worth more restored or left like it is? ]]

How can you "restore" something that is essentially new and unused?
To what would you restore it?

Bike sold for $13,800.00, which seems like a steal.

But even better? It's coming home to the States. Let's hope the person who bought it actually rides it.

$5K at best. Engine could be frozen. Nothing rubber would be any good. Getting it running would be costly and time consuming. Shipping costs would be high.

I just don't see the value in it.
