What is the purpose of this

[steve h]

A "bent" piece of a motorcycle for sale... nothing new in that.

[chrisg]

Bargain, or maybe not.

[ozzysbikes]

I think it's a cry for help from the seller, they cannot be sane !

[midlifecrisisrd]

3 grand for a useless ornament

I don't get it

Steve

[reedpete]

Does ‘cannot be returned to the road ‘ ( in the uk) = For export to country where they don’t care and a useful identity for a nicked donor ?

Either way,
if it smells fishy it probably is...

Another Cat B

But aren't they advertising it as repair too ??

Vey sparse on the damage details, is the frame bent to make it a Cat B ?

[midlifecrisisrd]

For cat B the chassis is or is suspected to be damaged

Can NEVER go back on the road

I'd like to see the wheelbase checked on that. Either that or the headstock has cracked

Steve

[headcoats]

Are the insurance companies too trigger happy to write something off ?

[midlifecrisisrd]

Maybe with the whole Covid thing they are just writing stuff off

I msged about this a couple of months ago, guy is a total bullshitter, said it can go back on the road "no problem"

6k for a bike thats probably worth 3k tops as a breaker

The guy will be sitting on that for the next 10 years at that price 

[headcoats]

The Cat B in his eyes is the broken front mudguard !

The seller is a Funt but still say the insurance are too eager to write stuff off

Can't frames get re jigged in a moto liner or something now ?

The first listing I put up of the frame only looks a simple frame with detachable lower frame rails

[mak595]

When i first started out as a panel beater mid '80's, the stuff we repaired was unreal, now a scuffed bumper writes em off .....
