-4200 miles on engine, left side cover slightly scratched
-Super Bright LEDs gauge, indicator, taillights
-Newer tires Bridgestone BT45's (under 1000 miles) and good rims

damn man, hope you're ok.
pm'd you about the seat
thanks, was enjoying ride too much. accident on the right of me, bottlenecking traffic in front of me. minivan slams on brakes, by the time i reacted i didnt have enough braking room left, lowsided under minivan and went into oncoming traffic (luckily nothing was oncoming).
was wearing back protector, race boots, mesh pants with knee armor, mesh jacket with armor, helmet, gloves.
bruised knee and toe. just sore.
Wow. I had a close one the other day. Glad to hear you didn't get seriously injured!
I have been looking for new handle bar controls. Let me on the condition of yours when you get a chance.
Sometimes its better to be lucky.
also, i was just planning on doing a valve check: i have new valve gasket, 4 new orings (well, itll be in the mail)
i also have the oil filter studs and acorn nuts- new in suzuki bag
cortech sport tailbag (works awesome on the GS!)
GPS Ram Mount
ill try to think of others.
Wow....glad you ok! PM'd you.
Glad to hear you are ok! What are you asking for the whole bike?

Looking for offers on full bike as of now, haven't come up with a price yet since I am waiting for it to be towed back to my place. Sucks, I bought the bike with 3000 miles on it a few months ago. I'll take more pictures and post them.
Let me know if you wanna sell the little switch that screws in under the clutch lever.
sucks that happened :(
glad ur ok tho :thumb:
If this happened a few weeks to a month ago I probably woulda bought it for a parts bike since im only up near Scranton Pa.
Not that it happening at all is a good thing, not saying that.
Just saying, had some extra $ then but its pretty much gone now and the rest is going to fix mine.

I'll start the bidding at $300 if it has a clear title. If you go the parting out route, talk to PachmanP. He is rebuilding his wrecked bike and needs a few odds and ends.

Hey man,
Sorry to hear of your accident.
I'm in Lancaster not far away and would be interested in:
*stock exhaust -- I need to repaint mine and this way I could repaint a spare and switch them every few years. :)
*both complete fork legs if they are NOT bent from the crash. I don't need the triple clamps.
I'd go for the valve cover gasket and o-rings too, for the right price.
Let's talk.
PM me with your phone number?
I'm glad you're OK.
Best wishes,
Trwhouse :)
Sucks bro... glad to hear you walked away from it with only a few bumps and brusies
put new h-bars on the trd and ride it
a few scratches add character
the difference between a clean bike and a wrecked bike.... is about 3 FT

Actually that's wha I'm going to do.

Handlebars
Front right turn signal
Headlight
Front brake lever
Speedometer

Who is Jared?
Forum member who has been collecting GS parts for way too long :laugh: Also does some mean upholstery work! His username is "Jared", just PM him with a list of what you are looking for :thumb:

this frame thing has me too worried, I won't be able to ride it confidently anymore so I am going to sell as a parts bike or a fixer upper for someone. sorry baltimoreGS, $300 is too low. The engine alone is worth that.

True, but I have to account for my time/money spent getting the bike, time spent stripping the engine and other parts off the bike and leave room to make a profit after shipping the parts to make it worth my effort ;) You may consider parting it yourself if you find a buyer for the engine :thumb:

edit: reading comprehension not my forte.
Sold. Someone bought it last night. Someone's going to have a nice beater bike on the cheap.
