Attention California buyers! Here’s a great looking RZ500 that is described as better than average. It definitely looks like a well preserved original with some refreshed panels. And sporting a fresh rebuild with just 700 miles ensures you’re looking at a bike that is ready for several riding seasons ahead. The seller clearly states that his reserve is above $12k in the description when he suggests that an average example should bring $10-12k. While many other markets might raise an eyebrow, in California you can try to find another but there will be few to choose from at any given time.

On Apr-14-14 at 07:49:42 PDT, seller added the following information:
Bidders – The Actual mileage on the bike and frame is 16,953 km, but as stated I have put about 680 Miles on bike since I have owned it. (1094 KM)
Rebuild was done by previous owner. Bike also came from Colorado and was jetted for higher altitude. When I got the bike to CA, I had it re-jetted.To clarify cosmetics specifically as best I can:
Also as I stated bike has new plastics- (let me be more specific- Previous owner I believe replaced the top and bottom fairing plastics)
The middlefront side plastics are original and there is slight color differentiation between the two- very minor
there is a nick on one of the rear side exhaust plastics about an inch long
there also there is minor oxidation on the triple clamp and some oxidation on the black metal reservoir cap cover. This is why I state the bike is not a 10.
It is a beautiful, clean bike which I store indoors, and ride maybe once every 2 months
the bike is a 9.8 out of 10 , ( 9.9 with out the minor cosmetic flaws and a 10 being a show bike)
My apologies on the image quality but I’m sure the seller can provide originals to serious inquiries.

Not good, seller already clarifying original listing. Someone must have asked for receipts of the fantastic engine rebuild,as usual the seller doesn’t have them.
[…] it's another very nice RZ500 for sale in California. This one has seen even fewer miles than the one we posted yesterday with just 2500 miles covered since new! Just two owners and a convincing seller description. The […]
“This bike is not for you”…does this corner lot used car sales tactic work? These bikes are attempting to start a speculators market.
