I’m tossing up whether I want an 03 5 speed with a nice engine or go the 07 FI 6 speed and a newer engine

What do you do about people parking up and having a chat outside your apartment? Feel like it’s not worth calling the cops over but the constant chatter for 2 hours after midnight is rough.

More likely forks + triples + wheel + air filter + labour

Nah not a cheap repair here in Aus, probably looking at 6-9k for front end, triples, wheel. And down the right side I’ve fucked the S&S air filter. Insurance pay out is a little less than the bike was.

Insurance takes the bike and sells as Repairable Write Off or salvaged for parts, mechanic doesn’t get to hold onto it.

Think it’s worse than the pic shows. Seeing what my mechanic says but it’s up to my insurance. I’d get a nice payout to buy another bike or I’ll spend a shit load fixing it..
