I hope it sells soon so i'm not tempted for long 2012 1187 miles $4500 looks like it needs windshield, turns. headlight, and has dent in the tank..... I haven't seen it in person so it could have more damage. If I was to get it (and i'm forcing myself not to go check it out) I would put a fairing on it and aftermarket turns. http://www.racersedge411.com/edge/racersedge/admin/bike.php?id=05c9f44fd29d3157da72dbbbab6b1c68 http://www.racersedge411.com/   Logged     owning a motorcycles not a matter of life or death, its much more important than that   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1003963 Lug Nut (User) Motorcycle-Based Therapeutic Intervention works!

His would have been the deal of the day for someone here to upgrade to a FI model.   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1003990 Deerkiller (User) I just made this great wheelie...did you see it?

His would have been the deal of the day for someone here to upgrade to a FI model. Yep, mine had about 33k miles on it though. Of course it had all the necessary upgrades but it is what it is (or was ) Never been so sad to sell something. It had to be done of course but... And no, I wouldn't touch a salvage Roadie for that money. Don't care what the years or miles are. Even if it was in perfect condition (repaired).   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1004035 yamaleidy (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 623 Re:2012 deal, salvage 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Salvage bikes can be a good deal if you want to keep and ride. Your options when selling are greatly reduced because most people will shy away from a bike with a previous salvage title. The key for a "good deal" IMO is to purchase for at the most 1/2 the cost of a similar year and model clear title bike. Why go through all the hassle and costs of repairs,and dealing with inspections and low resale if you can do some searching and find a good clear title bike for a little more cash. Example on this website,2007 RS Midnight 54k miles,salvage title $3300. You pick this same bike up for this price with probably less miles and a clear title needing very little work. Just my thoughts.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1004086 pastornj (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3110 Re:2012 deal, salvage 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Way too much for a Salvage title bike. Not even worth buying to part out. The frame is completely worthless and insurance companies will not cover anything more than liability. There are tons of good used Roadies around. Nothing to see there - move along!

If a guy needed a motor or trans or was able to part it out maybe $900.00. I know this much, it'll never move at that price.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1004138 Littlebull (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 124 Re:2012 deal, salvage 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I have watched that site in the past and I would bet that it is sold or on hold within a week. Don't think I would go there but if they still have the same luck they did two years ago somebody will.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 4607 Re:2012 deal, salvage 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   If it does sell for that much it'll probably be to someone who will relist it in the fall for a lot less to try to get some money back after finding out how much of a hassle getting a clear title for it might be. Lots of EFI Roadstars around in the $5000 ~ $5500 range that have low miles and nothing wrong with them ... ... scroll down further, there's a clear-title Stratoliner S with no apparent damage for $4200: http://www.racersedge411.com/edge/racersedge/admin/bike.php?id=eb5c2801a0a2ff51bc60430ff6b55b39   Logged     Last Edit: 2017/03/13 16:14 By BubbaKahuna.   This fits in here, right? I mean, I can make this fit in here ... right?   The administrator has disabled public write access.
