Here is my new Modded 77 XS400

How much are these going for nowadays? In good condition. I am trying to assess its value. Mine has been restored, all valves, carbs, parts, breaks, seat, pistons, have been worked on. Engine compression is great, and she runs great. she has 9300 miles.

That's a nice clean looking bike. Sorry I can't help with prices in your part of the world.

I like the seat. Do you know anything about it?

A stock restored one in my area can go for around 2k But a good running modded one maybe $1000 or so. I know in Australia they go for big bucks in any shape.

Small modified bikes are not very valuable in the USA because we don't have licensing restrictions. In countries that restrict licenses the value of small starter motorcycles goes up. People here are just not willing to pay high prices for small motorcycles unless they are exceptional. By exceptional I mean professional quality modifications; think something capable of winning a contest at a motorcycle show. If you can't say that about the bike it's probably worth less than a restored all-original motorcycle. The restored original motorcycle has more value to collectors. The target market ends up being different because you're appealing to much different people.
