AND it prolly left a mark (or two):

All that, and the crash bars are still in perfect shape!

Looks like the exhaust might be in decent shape still too!?

Good buy for about $100 except it is in EL PASO!!!

Thats 500+ miles from me each way...

too bad.

Two of the headers got crushed.

[jwhughes3]

But from collector back they should be good...

John, did you notice that the starting bid is $200? The 78E they had listed looked to be a better candidate for parts and the stating bid was only $30. Can't help but notice that the side covers are always missing on all these salvage bikes, they must grow legs after the bike is wrecked.

[jwhughes3]

No I didnt...couldnt get past it being over 500 miles away

Not a $200 bike. I'd bid $30 for the other though!

There is enough parts to make your money back at $200 and easily double it, but not enough to ship it here to Ohio. For the exhaust you probably will need to do some cutting and welding to use what is still good, most likely the 2 and 3 headers mangled the collectors as well.but those are in short supply.

That had to have been at some decent speed though for the front wheel to be caved in and that tank is almost pancaked, so someone went off the front side. I'd say the former owner may well be formerly here. Lack of damage to the sides of the bike would say it only went over after it was completely stopped.
