Head on accident

[dollarb]

Well this is what happens when you go head on with an SUV. Is it worth fixing, should I turn it into a street fighter project and get another bike, or should I part out/scrap it? It was a 2005 600 by the way.

Part it. I'm sure arsenic needs spare carb parts.

Ouch man! Glad you walked away from that one! You are probably best off parting it out. At least monetarily. You can probably buy a new bike for what it will end up costing (time and money) to rebuild. You can take the money you make parting it out to put toward a new set of wheels.

The frame is surely bent somewhere and not worth using.

[dollarb]

Parting out is pretty much what I thought, just wanted to make sure before I went that route.

Just the engine and carbs will put you a decent way towards a new bike.

Insurance factor in at all?

Part out. Its almost as bent as a Kawasaki EX500 I had. My front tire was almost touching the foot peg. Glad your ok.

[92xjunker]

Wow, good your ok. I would have to agree with parting it.

First and most important, you are OK!
Believe it or not, there are still plenty of parts worth saving off of it. Although the list of bad parts is long also. What did it take to get it back from insurance is the thing, will it balance out or be profitable to take the time to part out? I can think of parts I would be interested in as many on here would.

f@(&ing a hole uninsured people! Does anything ever happen to these dumba$$es? Sorry, 2 out of the three incidents I have dealt with was with uninsured drivers and it pisses me off when people won't be responsible for what they do!
