    	There really isn't much of a market for "Choppers" anymore (at
    least I don't see it in the circles I run in).  Your best bet would
    probably be renting a table at the next British swap meet you can find
    and part the bike out.  More than likely it's worth more as parts than
    as whole bike.  Of course this is just my opinion and your mileage may
    vary.

    Does it run?  How's the chrome?  Do you know anything about the history
    of the bike?

I've seen 'standard' T120R offered for sale
for 12,000FF - 15,000FF in French mags.

The UK  price would be approx 1,000 - 1,500 GBP


A lot would depend on condition. (and how desparate the buyer is)
