Selling a R51/3 from overseas

Hello guys,
I have a friend who owns the bike pictured here, engine nr. starts with 530###.
He restored it totally, though not to a "phanatic" original condition (chrome where it should not be etc.).
The bike has been standing ever since, as he started a 750 BMW project that he realized was more suitable for him in terms of riding.
His question (through me, as he does not speak English) is whether it is possible to try to sell the motorcycle here through the forum, is it aloud, is it practical to sell a motorcycle that is located in Israel to a costumer in the US (or anywhere else of course) and does it have a market at all. He has no idea what price to charge; These bikes are very rare here in IL, they have no market and certainly not a price list. He will asks the seller to bear all the bureaucratic & paper processes and understands that is why he will have to be flexible with the price asked.
Thanks a lot - Michael
