I'm looking for a trackbike, so depending on how much you want for it, I might be interested. You can email me if you want at Slater1601@aol.com

Get the parts you need off the net or feebay. Make it ridable and enjoy it. I assume you bought it new? If so you won't even get whay you owe on it. Enjoy it, have somone paint it down the road, sell it and move on. You can EASILY sell the bike. But you will get lowballed to death. There's ALOT of people, including myself, who don't care if a bikes been down. People that don't know a whole lot about bikes get scared by it. NO OFFENSE to anyone. Just saying.

Don't bother trying to sell it in that form, its close to totaled... unless someone wants a stuntbike and is willing to offer you some low number. Fix it up and learn on it with ebay parts, its your best bet.

By the way, how did you crash the front... did you flip a stoppie attempt?
