The once was Buell, is totaled, I am considering
bying it back from my insurance, they want $1400.
The bike was flipped over backwards and took on
alot of damage, It was a slow crash but still messed
it up pretty good. I can't decide wether to buy it or
not. The thing is a 2001X1 with PM polished wheels
and it only had 3100 miles on it. In all actuallity someone could have it rideable with a grand probably.
The dealer was real cool in replacing every single part
that had a scratch, only thing is it totaled up to $5200
in parts. Im trying to decide to buy it for $1400 and sell
it as is for about $2200 or part it out or just let it go. Do you think I can make my $$$ back
if I part it out? How much does the motor got for? THANKS!!!!!!!!!!

Heck I cant make up my mind.

Ron.

Offer your insurance $1000 for it. It is worth well over $2K if the engine and tranny are in good condition.

If your engine and wheels are intact, buy it and sell off the parts!

I suppose insurance gave you a fair amount for the wreck. If not, I'd buy it back. The PM wheels alone are $600 each. Forks are pretty penny too. The engine and tranny can be turned into a real hot project. You can also part it out for quite a bit. I'll be racing mine soon, so I may need spare parts in the future! I may even want the wheels for race tires only. Put a few pics of it in here so we all can see it's potential. Might be a good race bike.
