Steve-o nice bike :D, thanks also for the offer of parts, very kind :bow: I do have the stock indicators off the rear and a stock exhaust (scorpion is rusting in a bush somewhere, lol) but may get back about the screen. I'd like to keep the undertray though, lol Plan is to order a haynes manual, take it apart a bit, flush it through, put a new engine case on, some thick oil in it and try and run it.

CBR600 FV Crash Damage Help inc. timing casing broken repairable?
I know alot of you are bikers sooooooo, I had a bad off on this bike 5 years ago now. It went down the road and up a kirb. Apparently the engine was running and it got switched off but he timing case was broken. I want to see if the engine is dead or if i can get it running. Its been sat in my garage and hasn't moved for 5 years. What is the sensor that is broken off? Does it send a spark to the plugs? In that case the engine may be ok? i.e the timing never went out and popped a valve into a piston. The other worry is that the engine was running without oil. However i can push the bike in gear so the engine isn't seezed. So my questions are: Can you see anything that would have knackered the engine from the photo's and the amount of time it's been sitting? Should i just try and get an engine casing, fill it up with oil and try to start it? The other broken bits are more salvage yard jobs that i can source but i don't know alot obout this engine . I'm now disabled so i'll need to adapt this bike to get it on the road anyway. Its going to be a good project to get into if the engines ok! THE GOOD SIDE :D

*SORRY THIS IS A REPOST OF A THREAD I ALREADY STARTED* I have an email about my car but am a bit suspiciouse!! He emailed me about the car from his personal email address asking about what price i would take for the car, this is my answer. Dear Steven, Thank you for your email. Sorry for not replying sooner. I am willing to negotiate the price somewhat as it is a waste to have the car and not be using it much, it needs to be used and i am using the money to build a streetfighter trike (as i am disabled and have never seen one done! ) I would take £5,500 to take it away now with all the goodies? Where abouts are you based? The best thing to do would be to come and have a look and a test drive, as i'm assure you you'll love it!! I also have some better pics of the interior. See attached file. My telephone number is 07900 801 532 Call or email me back. James Crawford His reply was this: Good Morning, Thanks you very much for getting back to me regards the purchase of your car and am very excited that you still have the car for sale. Regarding the price of the car , i will offer you £5,600 which i believe is fair enough for the car if i am right. So are you the first owner of the car? and for how long have you been driving the car,i mean the mileages?because these are what i need to know before i could proceed with the purchasing of the car. I want your response on the above questions so that we can wrap everything up in a short while as i am eager to take the possession of the CAR once the payment is fully CLEARED in your bank.I have a shipping company that will come for the pick-up of the car wherever the car is located in UK. Please Note that i agree to take the possession of the car only when the draft has FULLY CLEARED AND CONFIRMED IN YOUR ACCOUNT. So if you are ok with this kindly get back to me as i need to complete the transaction asap.. Thanks. Jennifer Jones BERN,Switzerland
