Guest citimoto Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 As some or many of you may or not know. I had an accident on my sport when an elderly gentleman in a very large mercedes decided to turn into me. I had about 900.00 worth of work done to get her running again (including the FBF Airbox installation) and the guys at the Guzzi shop went over her head to toe. The frame is straight, the forks are not bent and she runs better than ever. I just rode her up to the mountains for a 200 mile pre dawn- grab some breakfast and back to town trip and I had a smile on my face the whole time. For those that remember: Race Tech Forks Ohlins Rear Crg Mirrors FBF Airbox conversion Rich Maunde Seat Rosso Puro head guards (now scratched) Mistral Carbon cans Stucchi Crossover exhaust ceramic coated pipes 31,000 miles Now the Bad: my front faring was scratched beyond belief (now gone) Gas tank looks 99.8% good Right carbon can looks like i took a sander to it Rosso Puro guard did its job (original guzzi ones available) Rear Cowl and Tail are deeply scratched I replaced break levers, foot lever, all turn signals and it truly runs amazing. The guy that hit me's insurance considered it a total so I guess although I have the clean title in hand the next owners will be a salvage one (?) I will post pics of the damage this week. I do have some post accident pics here here: www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=146620&highlight=biscuits In all honesty I think that the tail hump and seat cowl that neads to be replaced (or compounded and repainted) . The right can isnt that noticable to me. I dont want to sell but I bought a KTM 950 and apparently we are a one bike family. I can provide paperwork on all work that was done to the bike after the accident and also all repairs noted that considered the bike a loss. Im asking $3500.00 for the bike and its located in Charlotte NC Thanks, Chris
