So, as some of you may know, my bike was stolen a while ago. Some LEOs practically beat down my door knocking this morning to inform me that it had been found.
I was ecstatic until I got to impound and saw it. One of the mirrors was hanging off, the ignition cylinder had been raped by a screw driver or something, and the gas tank lock cylinder had been popped out. There was some other minor cosmetic damage.
My biker friend mentioned that there is no way for me to know what they did to my bike... they could have taken it past redline for fun, burned out the clutch, done burnouts, etc, etc, etc.
I have very limited funds (I can't be getting this thing towed all over town) and it wont start. My friend says he would just use it as trade and gloss over having to worry about all the depraved things that may have been done to it.
I don't know what to do... it wont start, although it may be just the battery. I don't see how they could have drained the battery from it though. It was in the off position when recovered.
I would love it if someone with experience with bikes, and stolen bikes and sportbikes in specific could give me some sound advice here. If anyone really has something valuable to say, PM me for a phone number
