    Stick it in a Moto 2 chassis and have genuine (or mega close) MGP bike :)
     
  2. Screw it... Ducati Desmo Scrambler (Even Fuller Throttle Edition).

  4. That is toast and he knows it if you read his comments on Facebook.

    From the pictures, it's hard to imagine that anything other than perhaps the gearbox is salvageable. Can only assume that there will have been some damage to the engine internals or timing gear!!

    I'd have thought the owner would be better of trying to buy a bike with a damaged engine and either buy it, or sell his motor/box if there is no damage.

    Shame to see.
     
  5. In the good old days track damage like that was sorted easy, find a very quiet road and throw bike out the back of van, find some fresh road kill to wrap around bike and hey presto an insurance claim. Or so folklore would have us believe.

  6. All pre social media where people can't resist the urge to talk about themselves 24/7. :rolleyes: I'm pretty sure any insurance company these days will spend 2 mins looking at a claimants Facebook history before paying out, maybe a bit longer on a £50k bike. :upyeah:

  10. Opening post stated:
    Contact via the Desmosedici Riders Club FB page. https://www.facebook.com/groups/mawak.drc/?ref=nf_target&fref=nf
     
  11. PM me your contact details and I'll pass them on if I can
     
  12. agreed Totally
     
  13. I have seen these bikes practically written off on the cost of footrest brackets and fairing parts from a mild off
    engine; put it in a bike with a bigger front wheel?
    fireblade? ZX10,? Notice the tank protector worked well
    joking of course, but my only concern is for the rider; hope he was in better shape than the bike was left in?..
     
  14. great idea have a 748R spare, could you negotiate the deal for me? give you 15%
     
  15. Nah, polish out no problem!
