How to determine the value of a bike?

I have a 1977 Honda cb550 four K and it seems that the classic bikes like this are worth something if fixed up.
How do I determine accurately how much it's worth?

I have gone to Kelly blue book but they put low price on it, and I have seen many of them on ebay going in the thousands
I was shocked that the bike in my garage could be worth that much so that's why I am investigating other sources.


Thanks

kkbb.com low balls all values, I believe it's a guide for the dealers to rip people off when they trade in their bikes.

You old classic is worth as much as you can get for it.
btw, I had 2 of those exact bikes, bought the first one brand new and put many miles on both.
