I'm in Melbourne, FL.  I have a 2008 GS500F with a blown engine (pulled shrapnel/bolts out of oil pan so it's beyond a quick rebuild).  PM Me on here and I'll send you my number.  This motor has a lot of good parts left and am willing to trade the core or part it out for the right deal.

I'll also be in Tallahassee and wouldn't mind driving to somewhere in FL or South GA.

PM'd

All internals are FUBAR    I pulled a handful of shrapnel and a  bent rod bolt/nut out of the oil pan.  The parts that I can sell from it will depend on which motor I buy this week.

Likely the only good part off of it will be the head. A broken rod means bad journals on the crank, a busted bottom half of the block and likely a split cylinder/broken piston

So I posted a WTS for the entire motorcycle that this engine would be going to... some stuff came up and I don't have time for a couple months but if I run across a good deal and the bike isn't sold, I'm down.

I messaged you. I'd like to try to work SOMETHING out even though I don't have much cash.

Bought a local motor this weekend!
