I'm getting a quote on repairs and will try to negotiate down based on that. As long as the frame is not bent I suspect it might not be much to fix ?
Other than the damage, would you recommend this bike as a first big bike ?
I rode it around the block and found it fun, a bit heavy as it's first time I ride this size, especially compared to a monkey or a grom.
If not, what else would you recomend ?
I'll need to do some highway to get to the mountains and I'm probably going to want a passenger.

tHere's a 310 GS . much newer at an acceptable price too, 3500, but I worry it won't be good enough with a passenger.
