'81 KZ750LTD with 33K miles for $400, Yay/Nay??

I had a lead on another bike, but it sold. I found a 1981 KZ750LTD. It hasn't run in a couple of years and has the carbs pulled since the current owner was going to rebuild after he discovered them leaking. So bike is not running, but ran a couple years back. Has 33K miles on it. Seller has it for $500, but will sell for $400. Seems to be in decent shape. Seller is selling as he doesn't have time for it. Should I grab it and hope I can get it running over the Winter?

Regards,
SnyperX

Sounds "dirt cheap" if it's all there

As long as the motor turns, you may have a new hobby.

Since I went ahead and picked up the bike on Friday I have since started another thread in the Projects forums. Here is the link:
