Its a piece of shit gen 1 bike, so $1000 tops. honestly the gen 1's are weak links and you will make more parting it out.

they have a flywheel issue, shitty transmission, weak cam chain tensioner, shit for wheels, and are just generally junk. a 2nd gen is a MUCH improved bike over the 93 and earlier models. dont spend money on any pre 94 EX500 again, it wont earn you any profit.
