I picked this up for $800.00. It's pretty much complete bars and controls.

The motor is supposed to be seized but I have not really looked into it yet.

Do these bikes have any value?

I do like it, but I am not sure what these things are really worth. I could easily put 2 to 3 grand restore it (if not a little more).

curious as to why you spent 800 on a bike not knowing if its rare or collectable

It was part of a package deal of stuff I bought, so I had to buy it to get the other stuff I wanted.

Dont think the NSUs bring alot of cash.. Here in Sweden you can get one in mint condition for between 2000-3000 $

Wow, guy must have great imagination if he wants 8,5k for that one! On the other hand they might be more exotic and desirable where you live?

There are people who like that kind of thing. I got one back on the road couple years ago for a friend who just loves Nsu, Adler, Puch, Honda dream, all that shit.

Had to buy some parts from a cat in Germany who would only accept Euros hidden in a letter. Here in Pissant, Arkansas, it took me a while to get hold of some Euros.

Thanks for the replies.

It seems it's not really worth putting much money into.
