Buying A Crash-Damaged Superbike Is Actually A Genius Move
Buying a crash-damaged vehicle should usually be avoided. But if you're careful, you can find a great bargain. How about a £19,000 BMW HP4 for £6000? Yes please...
I worked for a company that bought crashed damaged motorbikes and repaired them or broke them down for parts. It’s ridiculous how cheap they are
Wehay. BaronVonGrumble :-D
A true (banned word?? ok) machine. I’ve been waiting for a new video, Mr. Grumble, where is it.
Double bloody decker ;-)
Did no one notice the tabs he had open when he talked about the trackday? I hope they were intentional!
No. This is a horrible idea. First, it’s a hp4, it’s a numbered bike. Limited production. Once wrecked the value will always be wrecked. Proper own fairings will run a few grand. If anything is bent, it needs replaced, most of the time, you don’t come out ahead repairing these bikes, the front forks, have extronica in them, and the forks alone are 4 grand,,,,,used. (with ddc). There is a reason for sale, there isn’t any money in fixing them properly, and if you shell out the extra cash your gonna be backwards fast, because with a salvage title it’s only worth about half.,,,,

Why does it say ‘’in 18 hours’’?
But wait won’t there be stability issues (correct if I’m wrong I don’t know much about bikes)

There’s a “BikeThrottle” pattern emerging…
