Depends on what you want. As a streetfighter or stunt warrior, great, but to put back to stock would be expensive. Almost everything is damaged.

Lights 100 quid
fairing 400
Gauges 200
can 300
rear light 50
rear fairings 100
Seat covers 100
mirrors 50
etc etc

Of course if you got it for less than 1500 quid and could pick up the parts as required or get a complete set of aftermarket bodywork from the Orient with stickers on and a new can and LED tail light, it might come close to breakeven.

Ahhh.

Nothing like the written word to keep things clear eh.

If there is any truth to his story then he needs to quietly clean up his financial situation and switch his income to a new account, organize a new flat and move out. She's dangerous, jealous, controlling and probably technically insane, and I suspect that he has major issues too.

If they walk away now there's a slim chance they may get over it, but I suspect she's a nut case and the sooner he has her "sectioned" by the local health authorities the better.

Hmmmm....apparently owning a brand y nail can bring down the wrath of the missus. Some gals are very perceptive about which bikes are acceptable in polite society. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I'm sure you'd never find a gal treating a Suzi like that.
That gal has to be the Lorena Bobbitt (sp?) of motorcycles, IMO. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Ahhhhh.....some nights I just crack myself up...... :wink:
I could go on....but I'll give some of the sharper wits on here a chance to carry the thread along.
