I'm guessing a reputable company doing an enclosed shipment will cost you between $500 and $650.  With the cost of airfare to Flordia I would say a fly and ride will cost less than shipping, and be a hell of a lot more fun.  Three days/two nights if you're in a hurry.  It's an excellent opportunity to have a nice trip if you can take a week. 

If the bike starts and runs, it's almost a sure thing it'll get you home.

In Europe he would sell the bike for this price in two minutes. Somehow this whole cafe/brat/tracker crap culture skyrocketed the prices and 2000 USD would probably get you a clunky, banged out K75 in not too good of a shape. Mine cost a bit less than that and have spent a LOT over the price difference to get the bike running as it should (I have to confess, I am not completely there yet)...

Cheetos, the Banana Slug, is still out in my garage:

Granted, it's winter and not many people want to look at a bike in a garage at -10C.  I don't think you can buy a bike like it and bring it to the condition it's in for what I'm asking.  Judging from the offers I've had, the market on a nice K75S with moderate mileage is around $2200 to $2400.  I'm hoping that someone is out there watching it, and will be compelled to go for it when the snow melts in late April.

I'm posting this for my friend David who is selling a very nice, low mileage 1990 K75S. . . .
He's asking $2150 and has a clear FL title.  If you're interested send me a message and I'll pass along his contact information.

The moto in the original post was in S. Florida—not the tropics of Marilla—but it isn't posted on Craigslist right now like it was.

I'd buy your moto in a heartbeat, Gryph, if I needed another—knowing how you maintain your fleet, and despite your brazen hijacking of this thread. :giggles  Somebody should get right on your moto in spring, if not sooner. There's no point in living a life of regret.

I approached David about buying it and he told me he is not sure he wants to sell it anymore but will let me know when he decides

David has decided not to sell his K75S.  It's getting a suspension upgrade and will share time on the road with his 1993 R100GSPD.

This brings us right back to "Cheetos." Someone should work out a deal, before TMG changes his mind too.

Still out in the garage.  Just started it up today.  Asking $2750 to Motobrickers. 

Blue, I'm not accepting any offers of $35.
