And the ones I checked out have had the instruments replaced and the odometers readings are inaccurate. I think that means a salvage title in most (or all?) states. For a couple grand they would be a pretty smoking deal though.

Enough mileage that you won't get laughed at when you show up to BMW meets

I set a fairly low max bid, with no expectations, I'll go back right before it ends and possibly bid a little extra and see if I can win. Really though, I wouldnt want to spend more than $1500 even if the bikes are worth more than that.

I'm completely guessing, but I would bet between $2k and $5K. I'm betting that there are quite a few people out there waiting until the acution is almost over to place a few bids.
