Bent Frame?

[xploitation]

would you buy a second hand bike with a bent frame to do up? or do you think its an insurance write off?

Hi

Would not totally avoid one (although would be a LOT more dubious about a bike with an alloy frame like that GSXR), but would view it as something expensive to put right and so it would need to be a total bargain.

That isn't a total bargain.

All the best

To get that frame straight and safe if at all possible would cost in the region of £400, maybe more.

Thats no bargain, it's worth about £500.

It looks like some one has hit a curb and binned it by the looks of the front wheel and front forks its a nasty sight, a bike in that condition

You could buy that thing in good running order for £2200 or so. Not a bargain at all.
