i have found a damaged gsxr 600 k4 and wondered if anyone could tell me how much it is worth so i dnt pay over theodds for it…
it has no front fairing…( nt a problem as i have adams spares)
no clocks ( need these)
no headlight ( need one of these)
no head light bracket ( need one of these)
and maybe damgaed forks ( are these repairable?)
i have bid £1100 and the rserve aint been met? how much do u think it is worth??
That front wheel looks pushed back to me… anyone else?
Maybe frame (headstock) damage?
expensive?
thats what i thought at first but there is no damage to the wheel nor mud gaurd, so nothing could of hit the wheel to knock it? surley the forks woulda given way before the headtube is knacked?
oo just noticed front brake lever as well…
Looks like it’s taken quite a whack, can you be sure the frame hasn’t been damaged or bent at all? rather you than me…
well im nt to sure,
im waiting for him to email me bk just to make sure he has the V5 for it, and i wana check it aint stolen cus it comes withno keys!?!?
christof…be very weary my mate…please…
this bike looks fecked and i (myself)wouldnt feel comfortable riding it…
trust is everything on a bike and if you dont trust it…then thats the whole riding ethics out of the window…i personally would’nt go hight speed on it without a full frame intergration test…
just to check the front end aint gonna seperate from the bike at 80mph…
saying that…if the frame is fecked and you wanna buy it to transfer the working parts to another bike then quite a good project and a bluddy good learning experience…
the choice is yours and top banana for asking for the V5…GOOD THINKING BATMAN!!!
if you need someone to veiw the bike with ya just gimmie a nod mate…if im not working…i’ll go with ya and ask those…awkward questions…lolol
smiled
.
cheers smiled, yea… trust is kinda everything when ur life is on the line…
a frame test thing where can that get done and how much?
cus if i can pic this up for £1500 then surley there is no big loss if i spend another £1000 doing it up??
Unless you are good at these things, and know the right people, I wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole. There is a good chance that the frame has been bent on that. You can get them straightened at a few places, one being motoliner in Maidstone. Does not cost a great deal but should be taken into consideration, especially the time it will take you to get the bike to the format they require for straightening. I would say the forks are probably bent as well, and no, you don’t really go straightening those, if not too bad they probably could be done, again, you would need to consult with someline like motoliner for this. The rest of the bits you should be able to pick up from flea bay. I would be very suspect if there are no keys with it. Def make sure its got a V5, check the frame and engine numbers against it if you go and look at it.
more pics and description on site, maybe u can spot sumthing i missed??
if it’s just had a front end smash, how did the pipe and the clutch/alternator casing take such a beating? it looks like it was sliding at quite a speed to wear through that casing.
I think it’s one of those things were you need to have a good look at the bike in person, as once you strip it down you could run into a whole load of small parts you would need to sort out and thats where the cost start to mount up.
why dont just ‘borrow’ that yellow and black one???
ive already “borrowed” the yelow and black one once or twice before lol,
yea i defo wana go have a look at it now, guna see if i can get a date to look at it,
hmm…blackpool…
234 miles away and its take me about 5 hours to get there…hmm… is it worth it…
mite as well save up for a working one…
okay another question…
how much should i be looking at topay for a 2004 gsxr 600?? rough amount?
I wouldnt touch it, look at his feedback too.
Having now looked at the full article and stuff, it is worse than originally stated. Its only described as a CAT D right off, but, it also states that the forks may be damaged. Looking at the pics, I would be even more wary of the bike now. As the engine cover has been ground through, it will have lost its oil. Did the bike cut out straight away? Has it been run at all since? Did any of the shards of metal get into the engine? I would also be suspect of the front end electrics, they could well have been crushed which may not be apparent to start with.
Oh, and its from a salvage company, not the original owner.
hmm yea i guess its a no go then… cheers everyone, thanks for looking into it for me, 
That gixxer looks like it needs a lot of work.
If your after a crash repairable try http://www.rsmotorcycles.co.uk/ they are pretty good with prices and you get to inspect it first. Pretty much the cheapest around, I’ve found.
