Probably not much.
Most 80′s jap bikes won’t see past $ 1500 To 2000, unless it’s modified or rare or very customized to a specific crowd.

Your average 80′s jap bike will probably cost $ 300-1000 in decent running shape.

These bikes really don’t have high value since they were mass produced and there’s tons of them still floating around. Sometimes parts can be a problem but this is Model Specific!
There’s tons of them that it’s still easy to get parts for.

But these bikes are usually for a beginner, although heavy in weight.
And they are also for vintage collectors or bike ethusiasts( like myself)

They are cheap, very reliable and easy to work on.
They just don’t make em like that anymore!
Plus their usually fast, and take drops better than modern bikes, and you won’t
be dumping $ 1500 on body panels and paint if you take a tiny fall.

Vintage bikes get more looks on the highways and parking lots as well.
There’s tons of them available to buy, but you don’t see many of them on the roads for some reason!
