It's not the same thing but ChangJiang M1 bikes (from Shanghai) go for about 20,000RMB ($3,500). They're made from the original tooling of the 1930's BMW R71 model -- the factory was originally taken over by the Russians post-WW2 which the Chinese military then moved over to China in the early 1960's. I've heard of some people doing motor swaps to BMW boxers for a bit of reliability. 
Some old Honda Racebikes:
1960's Factory CB750 Racebikes 
1970's CB750 
1980's CBX (Inline 6 Cyl) 
1990's VF1000R.  | |

Knowing this won't get appreciated in the regular craigslist good buys thread, thought I'd post it here. 1989 Honda CB-1 Black 400cc
The CB-1 is one of my dream bikes. Never very popular around here, it was based on the CBR400RR. They're very difficult to find and sell quick. It's too bad I can't jump on this deal right now, it looks to be in great shape. Shame it's not in the electric blue colour though

^ reminds me of the inspiration I had for my ZX6E. Didn't go that route though, ended up finding cheap plastics ($20!) and selling it as stock before getting my XJ650.  | |
