Tiger 100 Prices

Hi all. In a bit of a quandry. I am looking to buy a Tiger 100. Have seen a 1967 model. Not matching numbers a few oil leaks. Great paint although not original. Great chrome all round. No history but photos of recent engine rebuild. Starts first kick from cold and sounds really nice. Does £4k sound OK for something like this one? I know it's impossible to say without seeing it but is this possibly in the right ball park do you think?
Would like your views.

Thanks

 

I think you are right. My max is actually £3,800. If it wasn't for the oil leaks I might take a punt. I am willing to do the top end (rocker stud, rocker base gasket, push rod tube and base gasket) but there is one underneath and I'm not up for splitting the cases just to (possibly) fix that one.

My first "proper" bike was a 5TA so I'm trying not to get too sentimental about this very similar bike!

 

WASH IT! Well that's true. I think I used more "Gunk" on my 5TA than it took in petrol! But in those days it dripped oil on my dad's drive and not mine.

 

Good to know. Thanks. I will let this one go but will keep my eye out for the right one and bear in mind about the better oil pump. Sounds worth the investment.
