Default My Red Bull is back!

After 1.5 Months,or more, my baby is back home


Of course... now to decide weather to really sell it or just fix it and ride... or ride as is!

I've ridden it a few miles today - *secret* I have to put the insurance back on if I want to ride it more . . .

I'm contemplating doing the fairing repair myself (fiberglass repair) and maybe doing a different scheme...

Well, any and all input welcome

I think I have a standing offer of 4500 as is... but we'll see.

Oh- and the total damage was reported / printed on this thread - click link for pics https://www.kawasakiforums.com/m_147515/tm.htm

Hahahahaha! I wish!!! I was just getting 2 estimates! The first took over 2 weeks, and they lsot the key so the next shop couldn't complete the 2nd estimate.... anyway- the first shop was supposed to look for the key, call the Kai dealer to possibly order a key... and finally hire the 2nd shop to remove the lock and take it to the locksmith to have them make an impression of the lock for a key- and that took a flippin month... so... 1.5 months later- I get my bike back in its damaged condition with 1 estimate and a HUGE headache. Oh, and the insurance already sent me a check... a while ago . . so the 2nd estimate was going to do me no good anyway....

BTW- the first dealer finally found the key... and I was told today . . . So I picked up the **** and trailered it home.

Worked on it and rode it
