You should never pay more than 18-21% of NADA book value for a salvage bike. $4700 is WAY TOO F**KING HIGH......

I think one guy on here bought a road king and put a few hundred into it to make it "streetable" again. That is who I was thinking of. It can be done, just gotta find the right deals.
That be me! Front was smooshed about like the picture. I put ~$700 in parts into it, that included paint-to-match fender, tubes, lowers, lower tree, bells. Love my bargain RKC, don't give a rip about the branded title.

If you got it for $3500 it might make a good donor for a project bike. Often when building a bike you think in terms of the largest components, like frame, motor, transmission, and primary, but it's all the little things, like brakes, rotors, pullleys (or sprockets), and oil tanks, plus hand controls, lights, etc, that take you to the poor house.
