Im looking for a bike that has either been crashed or has a blown engine for tech school. I need a reasonable sport bike that can be repaired without spending more than its worth. I need all the information possible about the bike. Also needs to be able to be shipped if not in wisconsin/minnesota area. Please reply to [email protected].
Thanks
Justin

E-bay's not a BAD place to buy... if you know what your doing and don't get greedy with the deal... what I mean by that is... you'll get a good deal... maybe even a great one... but if it's too good to be true... pass it up... not worth the risk.

Also... I'm not sure about anyone else... but I haven't heard of any scams involving salvaged bikes... it's usually a 2004 R1 with less than 1000 miles for $2800 or so... :2cents:

thanks for the input im just kinda seeing whats out there right now before commiting to one bike i have found a few just looking a little further.

I don't know if they have them in your area, but insurance salvage yards have auctions. they sale "TOTALED" bikes to the highest bidder. i have been to them in my area and you can get one for 200-500 dollars. you might want to check in to it

:iagree: and don't forget about your local rags. Look in the parts section also.

I have a 96 Zx6R. Engine is good. Looks like I have a spark plug stuck in the head though. Other than that, everything was fine after I low-sided. Cosmetics-wise. Not such a pretty looking bike. where are you located? I'm trying to get rid of the bike for $1000. I was going to turn it into my track bike, but picked up an 05 ZX6R instead.
