Sort of like the (non-zero mileage) clean, stock 1972 Kawasaki H2 (750 triple) I sold for $200 to a friend back in 1984? Of course I bought it for $400 the year before and was trying to get my friend into motorcycles. It worked, although that wasn't the ideal first bike... for either of us.
They are quite collectible now with some of them getting shipped back to Japan by collectors. This isn't quite the same as your situation but it feels like it to me.
