Where in Ohio?  I'm in Cincinnati and always looking for some spare parts.

Edit...just saw that you are in Middletown...not that far.  I'll have to stop and check out your online store!

Glenn, mind if I ask why it is being parted out? It looks fine other than laid down once or twice.

Your right the bike was in pretty good condition with just minor damage before disassembly and with only 1,000 miles on it the parts are more valuable than the complete bike with a salvage title.

I tried to price everything competitively but if anyone is looking for a better deal on a part it doesn't hurt to ask. I would rather help someone out than have it sit on the shelf.

Yeah, I kinda thought you were going to say it had a salvage title...... Too bad too because it looks nice.

That might be the biggest quotes I have ever seen around "Salvage" title... gotta love that these bikes are so worthless that little bit of damage totals them... Thats what... less than 600 worth of damage...

Hehe.

I see the it was dropped on the right side, wonder what the left side looks like. But it seems as if the engine is being sold as a whole on his site.  :icon_neutral:

You are correct. I am selling the engine whole, the miles are to low not to. This cover isn't mine but its pretty cheap on ebay.

Yeah, with 1k on the engine, no reason why it would be parted out. It is worth more and easier to sell as a whole.

Thanks,
I'm currently contacting another about their cover which looks to be in really good shape.

That gauge cluster I know they go for more but if you still have it after a bit and want to get rid of it ill give you 50 bucks for it? Also left side fairing still have that? and how much for whole tail section left right and middle?

Thanks for the offer, I will keep it in mind but I can't do that now.
