I had a major accident in October 2013 just after buying a new house, couldn't work so had to pay the bills.
Bought my demolished bandit back from the insurance and stripped it and sold it in parts. Ive done that well out of it that im now on bike 22 (non runners) and have made a good profit from each one!
I have thought about fixing it and keeping it or selling it whole come summer, but ive got NW200 in may, Just bought a fazer thou and I reckon the best bang for my buck would be to let the insurance pay out, buy it back and strip the nuts of it (literally)
I cant see this one going back on the road as I need the cash and I don't mind it coming in bits and bats as ive got shiz to pay for!

That (arse) Bandit ain't his, Exup. If you read the post, he bought it focced and broke it for spares for a profit. I think? Was that a bought focced, or yours?

He said "I bought it BACK" which says to me he had accident on it..... Notwithstanding the paragraph before where he said "I had a major accident ...."

Could well be one of the other 22.... :rolleyes :rolleyes
Broke my leg, Dislocated my knee, Tore the ACL & PCL, Fractured my Skull, Broke my Nose and my Jaw, lost the sight and hearing in my left side and spent an awful long time recovering!!!
45 Mins at the road side being stabilised and pumped full of pain killers!
Only bought the bike on Thursday, Hit by mr van man jumping the lights on a blind cross roads!!!
Right.... now we've cleared that up....back to business :b .......how much for the carb rubbers (if they are in OK nick)? Don't suppose there was a scottoiler fitted?
PS FOCing hell, that's a serious accident and glad you are still alive to tell the tale.
Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys beer, and that helps!
Sorry to butt in but is this bike being sold in bits, whole or has the owner decided to fix it ? I am a little confused, but then again I am always confused. :eek
Well I am glad we have got that cleared up. I am interested in a few bits myself so i will keep my eyes open for when the bits are available. Cheers mate.
