MORE DETAIL:

 

It's an 89 the frame is cracking where the motor mounts in front. (could be welded)

Original motor stock as far as I can tell. Stock shocks other than a Rappy 01 rear. I put new swinger and J arm all balls kits in. Also a Proflo plate and K&N filter on it.

I took the ALUM radiator off it already.

HERE IS THE KICKER!

 

If I take the $2165 (leave the bike) I get to go remove ALL MY AFTERMARKET BLING and accessories.

 

This is why I might like to start Fresh

 

 

Feedback?

Seriously tho....keep the bike & take the $1500..... you can buy a new frame & cases with that $1500 & still have money left over.....Its not not a hard decision to make.....you will be actually losing out if you take the $2165 leave the bike..... :shootself:

Let me get this straight. You modified the rear suspension geometry, you were jumping it, who knows if the chain was adjusted properly, you didn't have a case saver, the chain came off and cracked the cases, and you turned it into the insurance company? I would be ashamed to admit that something I built didn't go as planned, and I made someone else pay for my problems.

Are you kidding. You would do an insurance claim over a chain slappin the cases and crackin it. Lol. Just fix it. Thats your baby isnt it.

Alright you hater-aide drinking, sand eating forum hyenas. I files a claim because:

1. Chain broke case slow drip

2. Ran Case out of oil (didnt see drip) fried crank bearings

3. warped crank cracked my fucking piston

 

see post: http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=152267

 

So your damn right I filed a claim. I fight fires. I don't rebuild engines.

 

I already bought a set of cases from Josh Z so now it's time to send it off to Wildcard (your sponsor)

 

Think I want to fork over $1700 for the rebuild when I put INSURANCE on the fucking thing to begin with? Suck dirt
