Priced way low for my market area, the beat up Gyro will sell for $600 around here and $1000 or more in great shape.

but not as slow as a spree. It is a two speed auto tranny. Take off is slow but it kicks when shifting to second and then revs out nicely. The motor is closer to the early sa50 afo5 engine.

that looks more like the 87 gyro.i thought the 84 gyro had a front frame and bars like a honda express? or maybe I got them backwards. anyways that one looks in good shape.

asking price for a gyro in that condition in hawaii would be around $3000. iv personally never seen one in person here.

Nope, that is an '84 (the only year the Gyro was sold in the USA). The Gyro S has the exposed frame like the express and looks more like a chopper wannabe, sold in '85 and '86. No form of the Gyro was sold in the US market for '87 :(

Although I prefer the other variant of the Gyro, I'd say $500 is wortwith it. If it has been sitting forever (bad tires, brakes, dirty carb, rusty tank, etc...) and has 5k+ miles, I'd talk him down.
