of course from this pic we cant see the swingarm and backbone but, just from the looking at this pic it looks like you could bob that rear fender and maybe get a new tire and ride it?? the ins will pay it off and for $1500 your rideing. sounds like the way to go???? i think you could probably finace 1500 on that bike, totaled or not, if you like the bike then if it were me i would be thinkin long and hard before i just cave like that. so what about resale???.... you might find yourself keeping it for life. i have a 72 Triumph that i have owned since the spring of 73 that i will probably own untill i die and then my son will own it, the bike hasnt really cost me anything thru the yrs so why would i sell it??? besides if the day ever did come that you wanted to sell it, i am sure somebody on here would give you $1500 for it, even if it were a few yrs from now. there are $1500 in parts, i know there is a cdi box that someone would want hahahahahahahaha just food for thought and my $0.02 worth


ENJOY!!!!! NEWT!!!!!
