Liked the ACTUAL bidding on the bike being included in the video. Nice addition Rob.

I can't believe how well that runs considering. I think Kyle smashed a Monster then did a stoppie off a loading dock.

The instant I saw the front most portion of the faring broken and then you zoomed into the headers, I knew that it had been low sided and then made impact/contact with another stationary object. I'd also check the front forks and attachment points on the axle/wheel as well as make sure that the forks are still true.

Don't be so late uploading new material, RK! We miss you!!

[abvevo]

I kind of agree with your pole theory because years ago, a guy riding with us lowsided, and his bike hit a stop sign. The bottom mid section of the headers looked like someone took a baseball bat to them similar to those. 😂

Hi Rob and Sean, you guys rock, keep sharing this awesome stuff. Greetings from Madrid, Spain!

Anyone looking for a bike, please do yourself a favor and dont do this. These guys are clearly doing it for content, and I'm all for that.

Reality of the situation is patience will get you way better deals than trying to play fixer upper. I lost my gsxr750 to an 85lb dog launching itself into my front wheel and within 5 months i found a 4k miles, lightly modded '11 zx10r with very minimal blemishes in the paint(normal road driving stuff) for $6k-7k

$4k+ for a bike with trashed headers(granted they didnt know about that) and almost all the plastics aint worth it. New plastics alone that arent total garbage will cost you north of a grant not to mention anything thats broken hiding underneath it.

What a awesome score brother... Well worth fixing up.🙌

nice find bro 🔥 the crossplane sounds dreamy 🎼🎼🎼

[domothepilot]

the perfect purchase to make a trackbike. full exhaust, bit of suspension work, duct tape together the fairings and go for racing

Harris are an English company that made specialist high quality frames, swing arms and other high quality billet products for top level racing. Some of there frames and products made it onto street bikes too. They are well known and respected over here for high quality, and expensive products. Save those levers if you can. I had a quick look and your looking at north of £100 for used ones, if you can find them. Don't confuse them with Harris Oxford or other copies 👍

9:39 I knew it didn’t sound rite like a normal r1 crossplain when the girl rode it over to you. It sounded like a ninja 400

[ivenalfianto]

Crossplane 🥰🥰🥰🥰. Can't wait to see the monster run

[NoReverse]

Man… that bike faired well with that damage. I am shocked it’s running so well for her to pull it back out with all of that back pressure. Those valves have to be struggling to work like that.

[rondellchambers]

That gas station burrito went down nice, but when you hit the seat of honor pray.

[cbismad]

Core Moto Lines, Puig Grips. Nice pickup

[ChrisGuthrie]

I got a clean set of stock rearsets, Tail fairing that needs paint, and the middle side fairings brand new in flat black and stock levers

[irontitancycles]

It looks like the wheel went over an obstacle and fell down on top of it, then lowsided after. That's a good find, man!

[Wolf]

Damage looks like unloading from trailer gone bad

[nateclark]

Y’all came to my neck of the woods man!! Hell yea
