I'm looking to buy a wrecked Buell to rebuild since mine was totaled in Dec. Everyday since the accident I've google "Wrecked Buell for sale". I found my bike today! Very last one on the page! http://www.carfrom.us/?carmake=BUELL&page=7 |

This is the one you wrecked? Or the one you're going to rebuild? Or are they one in the same? |

Yeah it's the one I was hit on. It has a certificate of destruction though. I won't be able to rebuild it and it be street legal. |

This one? http://www.carfrom.us/CD_2007_BUELL_MOTORCYCLE_234 51313 Looks like it has a small scuff on the frame and could have been painted and maybe a new header. |

Damage to the frame. Hell most of the Buell's on that site don't look bad, but have some frame damage. |

:hide: Why not salvage title? Frames can be rebalanced.....or tracky tracky! |

has anyone ever bought a bike through this site? I can't seem to find out whether it is possible to pick it up after winning the bid instead of having it shipped....??? |

Never have, but contact the seller. I'm sure that it would be in both your interests to do that. |

I'm interested in why it has a certificate of destruction? The others look like hammered dog Spit get salvaged title? |

As Froggy stated, the frame. H/D told me the day my dad brought it to them to inspect. That scuff is a decent size dent. I the truck that hit me sat just 2 inches lower it would have been fine and I wouldn't have rods in my leg...lol. I'm tempted to still buy it and replace the frame. I never tried to turn the motor over after the accident and I do know if was really tough to get it in neutral to roll it off the truck. My dad and brother picked it up off the side of the rode and put it in a truck. They never tried to turn the motor either. God I miss that bike! That was the orange header wrap I was talking about though Greg! |

Anyone ever bought anything from that website? I put a bid in on it but it's not showing it. It also seems that once you bid your bidding to bid? Doesn't seem to make sense! |
