zx6r 2010 crash

Post by dinosg7 »

hey guys, this isnt how i would of liked to start my first post on this forum, but it has to be done.

well long story short, some dumb ($&# floor's it out of a side street, i hit the breaks so i dont go into him and end up sliding along the road with my brand new zx6r.

what i would like to ask you all is.
does anyone know where i can get repairs done for it in melbourne. Also if you guys can give me a rough idea if you know with out seeing the bike how much it might cost me.
the throttle doesnt snap shut once i let go and also the left side of the bike is full of scratch's.

Dont stress its a 600 so the throttle is better being on rather than off. Full of scratches on the left well probably in the 450-650 range. If it only had some scratches then no more than 300. Its hard to say.

Hey Dino,

I am in Melbourne, and I have rebuilt many bikes back to 'as new'.. I have a few very good contacts in the bike repairing trade, so send me some pics as well.. and your location.. I am sure we can get it fixed just like it was..

Send any pics and your details to maccarocks@iprimus.com.au
