It all depends.

If your bike was owned by a multimillionaire bike collector and you bought it from his personal museum showroom with 2miles and not a scratch on it, I'd say you did VERY well.

Now if it was winched from the bottom of a swamp, has 212k miles, and is missing all the plastics and both wheels...... I'd say you got robbed.

You have to give the full details/pictures & we can then appraise it for you.

Yeh Mate,
Put a picture or two of it for us to see and some details, year, mileage, service history? etc, and we'll all try and value it for you. Some of the guys will make educated accurate valuations, and others will guess. Myself being the latter

Its a 1995 with 21000 milles on it. Bike runs really good brakes are good. Paint is just ok. But I plan on painting bike this winter. Timing chain does rattle a little, but I can fix that. Needed a rear tire but I ordered on. Thanks for any info.

Thumbs up

Very nice looking bike. How long does the CCT rattle. If it only rattles till the bike warms up, then quiets down that is norm with that many miles. WOW 1700 good deal, would be around here.

Welcome to a great site, there is alot of great info on here for the 1k's an alot of great people. Enjoy and Ride safe.
