Probably so; Poulsbo is a pretty small town and can't have too many RZs

There is a bike shop out in the sticks in Paulsbo called Genesis motor sports or something. I bought an RZ trans off the guy. He had at least 10 or 12 RZ's in there. Even a RZ250 that he had ran at Bonneville and was modifying to make it faster.
Paulsbo is quite a cool little town too.

So, bought new in 84.  All the street legal stuff stripped off including gauges/ODO.  Ridden as a "track bike" for 30+ years. 

Put all the takeoff street legal stuff back on and buff it out ... then call it a "920 mile bike" and charge crazy money?

I met the guy at Bonneville a few years ago.
He now has a nice RZ500 and a TZ250 that has a RZ engine swap for either salt or street (not finished as far as I know)
Might meet him there again this year.

So, I wonder what my well sorted, not pristine yet fully functional 84 is worth?

The RZ market has gone nuts.   

$6k easy these days.  Maybe more.
