The bike aint running, all hoses and electrical melted or burned off. i was concerned about the compression. i could kick the motor through by hand. Could have been burnt head gaskets leaking but not sure.

personally
I wouldn't if it was me--------------------fire causes things to change shape even at low temp.I thought if the wiring just melted and the flame level wasn't great maybe you could use it------------------nothing sucks more than to have shifted mounts and warped pieces after you have spent rebuild money
i know what you mean pete, I was hoping to swap parts to rigid fram and have my bobber but not sure this is right bike for that. might get lucky and find a running clear title bike with shovelhead and use it. gonna cost more but i know its ready to roll and registering and title be alot easier.
