Ive got a GSXR K6 1000, recently crashed for sale.

Its done 1200ks, it was crashed after only 8 days, (yea i know)...

it needs a new front wheel and a new radiator. It has no front faring or speedo.

Apart from that it is totally mint, no scratches or anything.

I have the faring, if you wanted to weld it up. It is de registerd.

I am wondering if anypone is interested to buy it, would make a mint track bike, or you could re build it and re regester it.

Let me know if you are interested, it was $20 000 new i am looking for around 5 -6k.

Tom, why don't you fix it yourself?

7th August 2006, 11:36

Shit, if I didn't have my current plans I'd be seriously interested. Good question Finn, why are you not rebuilding it yourself Tom?

I'm not 100% committed to the mods on my bike yet (although I have enquired about the carbon rims this morning), post up some pics if you can. Might be enough to sway me.

Looks repairable, did the forks compress and force the wheel into the rad?
Not sure if it will still go without the dash though......anybody know?
It'd be a wicked project :)

is the thing still straight TL Rider?
(frame & forks)

No the forks didn't compress into radiator(PM Tom :wait: )...forks look "ok" from an amateurs view though. The dash was damaged but we were able to get power to it after the crash but couldn't hear the fuel pump working. Tom has the dash...

is the thing still straight TL Rider?
(frame & forks)
Forks look "ok" as I mentioned above. The frame has minor scuffs...no deep stratches etc and appears to be fine. No dents at all..
In saying all of this I'm not mechanically minded but the others that have seen it reckon the "wreck" would be suitable for track racing.

Well if weather's ok we were planning to do this Pie Eating/road carving ride through the Coro Loop (never done) with Swanny and his merry crew. However if it's average weather come on up,more than welcome.
I "work" from home so anytime is usually good mate.

Tom,

Shaun Harris wants you to ring him - he is interested. Ph: 0272559143

tomthepohm

7th August 2006, 12:56

Cheers Trev will give hime a call.

I managed to get the radiator back so there is no probs with that now eather.

I too am not mechanicaly minded but as far as i can tell it just needs a new front wheel, they wrote it off because of the lack of fairing.

tomthepohm

7th August 2006, 13:00

Colapop

Yeah but what about parts cost?
new dash
fairing repair & repaint
new front wheel
possibly new fork (or two)
... anything else?

trev

7th August 2006, 13:10

Tom, you didn't leave Shaun your number

The Stranger

7th August 2006, 13:13

Yea, in answer to the question, i am interseted in making it a track bike myself, apart from the fairing it is race ready, would be good for clubmans...

but if someone offers me a good amount i will buy a new K7.

As far as gettin it back on the road it will cost $300 dollars to get it re regesterd and thats it.

I heard that if the bike has been written off by an insurer you need to have the chasis certified before you can re-vin it. Can anyone confirm this please?

you might do well to sell it in parts i.e engine, wheels etc. Shit youv'e already taken most of it apart...
There would be a few racers who would be keen to buy spares parts.

You would be suprised, I bought a R1 that had very similar frontal damage, front wheel was fucked, frame was cracked behind the steering head,the radiator was rooted where the wheel had gone into it, but the forks were straight :yes:

Hyosung + $500

Tom, this is the same Hyosung that was pulling power wheelies at Mere Mere, taking ZX10R's on the outside and eats rear tyres faster than any other 250 due to its sheer power.

I'm willing to negociate.

I'll get my people to contact your people and we'll do business.

I'm willing to negociate...Swanny, according to a certain ZX-10 rider he was slowing down to let you pass on purpose cos if you continued to try and keep up you'd have binned it! LOL just flick the Hyosung and present Tom with 6K, K6 engine's easily worth that alone, and surely he'll take your money...unless the deal's already done? :blip:

I still remember that day it was written off before my eyes, sad day in your motorcycle history Tommy, yet it has so changed your life. May the new owner have every success with it!
