Title: Anyone want a rat/track bike? Post by: Duck-Stew on December 04, 2012, 07:03:32 AM http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/mcy/3439327952.html (http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/mcy/3439327952.html)
I have no affiliation to the seller, but it looks like it could be made into a rat Duc fairly cheap... Title: Re: Anyone want a rat/track bike?

Educate me, don't know a thing about the 800SS Title: Re: Anyone want a rat/track bike? Post by: Duck-Stew on December 05, 2012, 06:52:34 AM Educate me, don't know a thing about the 800SS Injected, 6-speed, wet-slipper clutch. About 78hp. Suspension on this model needs help, brakes do not (for what speeds the bike will achieve). With the bodywork removed, it would feel like a less powerful Betty...

How much do you think I would need to put into the bike to make it a descent track bike (i.e. suspension, track skin, repairs, tires etc.)? Title: Re: Anyone want a rat/track bike?

I like where you are going with this Karl!How much do you think I would need to put into the bike to make it a descent track bike (i.e. suspension, track skin, repairs, tires etc.)? My thought would be first season no investment! Put frame sliders and do few track days without any skin...Then start modifying per need! [thumbsup] Title: Re: Anyone want a rat/track bike?

Title: Re: Anyone want a rat/track bike? Post by: Cloner on December 05, 2012, 07:58:33 PM 1 to 1.5k in suspension bit and ride it! There's an 800 SS racer in my garage right now if you wanna stare at one.
Price looks high to me for a non-running salvage bike, though. Title: Re: Anyone want a rat/track bike? Post by: Duck-Stew on December 06, 2012, 08:37:34 AM 1 to 1.5k in suspension bit and ride it! There's an 800 SS racer in my garage right now if you wanna stare at one. Price looks high to me for a non-running salvage bike, though. He does have it as OBO though... I was thinking if you offered $1800 +/- you'd probably score it. If the ecu/dash/keys are the issue, that can be remedied with an ecu re-flash. I doubt the side-stand switch is the culprit like he indicates. Title: Re: Anyone want a rat/track bike? Post by: Zaster on December 07, 2012, 07:50:15 PM I offered $1,500 .....
Title: Re: Anyone want a rat/track bike? Post by: Zaster on December 07, 2012, 08:34:37 PM The reply: Hi Karl, I would consider that....but right now I have no way to deliver it to abq. I had to borrow a friend's truck to pick it up from the auction and not sure when I would have access to it again. You don't have any way to pick it up?
