    Made a call. Hobbs says it needs some work but definately doable.

    New rim and straighten a fork and it is rideable. Needs some other bits and pieces but $1000 in repairs would get you a good rideable bike.

    These go for what 10k?

    What's a frame worth

    if you lost both rim and forks
    head being at least tweaked is probable... maybe GMD for a 1000

    3500 for the bike, and another 3500 ish to fix it...still a great deal...shit, with a bent fork, you might as well buy an ohlins unit to replace it...

    I don't think it would be $3500 to fix it. $1500 tops.

    I hear ya. I'm so close to buying this, but I know there are other places the money would go to better use. Stupid good decisions...

    $3500 for the bike (Per Hobbs above) plus $1000 to fix. =$4500 ($3500 would make it MINTY at $7000).


    You guys think your close! Ryan just about gave me the deal of the century to work a deal and I couldn't pull the trigger.

    I saw that yesterday, sent it to a couple friends that drool over my Hyper.

    Wish you had it in September, could have saved myself $7k
