its a nice bike. I would love to have an R1 if I could afford it... but I can't. But I always look for bikes. Most people that look for bikes are looking for low miles and never dropped. I mean, there is one on craigslist right now. A 2006 Raven R1 with less than 4k on the odometer, never dropped and dude is asking $7200. There is a green 04 down the street from my house and the guy is asking $6300. The mods are nice but you will never get your money out of mods done to any vehicle. You might want to consider getting it dyno'd and/or dyno tuned to show that all the mods done to the bike are runnning properly.

I never said I was firm on the price. When the bike did fall it's frame slider was only about a foot off the ground so there was definately no structural damage done to it. I'd be more than willing to let anyone with cash in hand test ride it so they can "butt dyno" the bike, LOL. I've looked at local ads and most other bikes in this category have only cosmetic modifications while most of my mods positively affect power or handling characteristics in one way or another. Thanks for the advice, but I think I'll leave it as is for now.
No, I haven't had the time. The small crack in the one that's on it now doesn't affect it's functionality so I just left it. I wanted to paint the whole thing so I was gonna wait till I did that to put it on there.
