got the bike unloaded tonight the auction company said it didnt run all i did was turn the fuel on and it fired right up sounds great vance & hines pipes tested the radio it sounds good too for an aftermarket set up . now the bad news the wheel is shot both forks have to be replaced and the triple tree is bent more like stretched good news it doesnt seem to have any frame damage and most of the paint is great really only worried about the replacement fender it is paint set 100 of 200 so i prolly wont find the replacement thinking about matching the green and just painting it green. any reason I should buy new forks compared to used ones ? found a set with the trees on ebay from an 01 rk for 300.00 still needs the chrome covers though.

Where would someone find salvage vehicles without going through middlemen or brokers?
