Hey there,

Not knowing the bike specifics (i.e. the reason why the engine seized) year model, overall bike condition and kms etc, I can give you a rough estimate of up to $1000 in labour and up to $2-3000 in parts.

I don't know how much this bike is going for on ebay but to give you a reference point you can pick up a brand new KLR650 for $8600 ride away with 2 years unlimited km warranty.

I hope this helps, good luck with your purchase.

I would imagine if someone had the ability and the time to fix it themself, it might be a good buy for a grand
