Hi

I have a totally original 1978 ST70 and I'm wondering if any of you experts out there have any idea of its value?
Its had one previous owner until i brought it about 2 years ago. its done 4150 miles. The original owner used it to get to college from 1978 until 1982 then he parked it in the shed for 30 years.I MOT'd it for a year now its SORN. There is a little light surface rust on the frame but its in generally good nick & runs ok. I had the wheels & mudguards shot blasted & powder coated & replaced the cables as they where seized but apart from that theres not much wrong. seat & chrome is pretty good.
I'm considering selling as i have 3 other bikes and the misses doesn't appreciate them like i do & i could do with freeing up some shed space. Any advice or interest would be great.

cheers :

Re: Whats it worth?
I guess it depends how original it is and is the any document history. I'm looking for one so could be interested. I was looking for one to restore but could be tempted. Do you have any photos you could email over. ***** I was looking to pay around 700 to 1k for one to restore but if it's in good condition I'm willing to go higher

Hi Wrongford,

To quote the old adage " a picture is worth a 1000 words" Everyone's description of condition is a matter of their own opinion.
Let us see a picture of your ST 70 and perhaps I may be able to help you.
