OK I am toying with the idea of purchasing an 851, I would prefer a 1991 model but that being said I found a 1992-ok so in 1992 it would have had 888 bodywork a little different but not a game changer. The one I found has no bodywork someone made it look more like a Monster but at least they did not cut anything up, so I will have to find all the bodywork over time, the good thing is that it runs perfectly the engine has just been completely rebuilt by someone I trust. The big question is do I purchase this knowing that it may take me a few years to source all of the tupperware? I can pick this bike up for $3500. I am guessing I could probably find all the bodywork for under $2000. so that would put me in around $5500. I have not seen any of these that I can purchase for under $8K. OK please let me hear from those who really know these bikes and have a good feel of their value and let me know your thoughts. Thanks
