Hey all, Been awhile since I played Green...Currently a BMW rider.

Anyone hazard a guess what a salvaged title 2017 RR with less than 2k on it would be worth?

Im sorely tempted...

I passed and bought a new one.

IN hindsight, for a race/track day bike a salvaged RR would be a fine deal if the price was spot on.
Figure a new RR costs about $18k. A standard R about $14k.
For me to want to buy a salvaged bike it would need to be about half the price of a new one, or about $10k.

Figure the wheels are worth almost $3k if intact (this bike they were not), the Engine, and suspension is worth about $3k. If the body work is toast (another $2k to replace) and the frame is good $1k...... That's $7k in parts alone.

You have to do your own cost analysis, but unless youre looking to run the kit cams, I don't see the benefit of an RR over an R, ESPECIALLY since a salvage title makes the collectability of the bike worth 0.
