anybody interested in an M8 motor in CO? I think we're totalling our M8, we cracked the bulkhead where the steering post hits it and some other damage, so we're thinking it'll be a total. Just looking to see what I could get out of it if I bought it back.

Erik, I'll shoot a pm once I get the answer from the insurance co.

btw, been dropping the 1000 a bit, the re-valve works well, big difference.

I'll be up your way soon with $$, thanks.

hood was already busted up, but the wife likes how it looks. I guess that's easier than the wife that likes all the shiny ****.

Nobody is interested in the motor?

I'm suprised. I'm just trying to figure out what it's worth giving them when they offer a buyback. there are some parts I'd like to scavenge if I part it out, but not sure on what the motor would be worth if I kept the other parts.

Not trashed, we found a crack in front of the steering post from where CO 2.0 rolled it on the hard snow a few weks ago. It's plenty rideable, but for the ins. company to fix this would be outrageous, so it's a total! we had new bars, but we took them back off before the insurance adj. got there.

Buyback was outrageous though, so if I can get close to 4900 for it I'll buy it back, if not, away it goes!

odo is not actual, based on my sled (and I ride more than her) she has between 1400 and 1650 on the sled. I just took that pic to show it's running.

Total needs: bezels (I stole them for an intake last year, this was a spare hood for us), bushings (a-arms are good) metal fixed, it will come with the new bars, so no issues there, post is fine, the footwell edges (tunnel rolls?) are cracked, they could use to be repaired but that had nothing to do with the accident we have 08 edges & cutler eliminators at the shop that could go with it for retail cost (we just bought them), I have hood screens for the hood also, this was a spare hood, she wanted to keep her old hood that was on it. I have the plastic that is missing from this hood, it is an easy fix.

Other than that it's in great shape, no oddball issues, strong motor, reliable, no BS.
