well it looks like you have a spare motor now, cause that in my book looks like a new bike is in order...... unless you have plenty of time on your hands and love to rebuild broken bikes..... sorry I cant help w/used parts just a flippant remark on my behalf, so i apologize in advance

Hehe no apologies needed, that's one of the options on the table.

Chris, I kinda agree with Dave. The possibility of missing something important during a rebuild is kinda high. Take off all the stuff thats good and put it on another bike, burn the rest. Wish I could help.

+1 dude. I think you'll be safer buying a salvage bike where its not a complete loss. I think you'll end up chasing gremlins this way. :(

Make you a good price on yours, Nico ;)
The spare bike is a very likely route, as long as I can find one. It'd get me back on track sooner also, as I wouldn't have to wait around for X part that I missed and forgot to sort out. No sad faces here about it.. in the end it may well end up being cheaper if it eliminates the gremlins like you said.

Chris,
You my friend are hard on equipment. Your comments about never adding up the receipts is very good advise especially for you hahaha.

I have a set of forks and battery tray, they came off of a 07 r6 raven, they're yours for FREE! if u want them, dont know if they fit the 08 model though. the right fork is mint the left one has a scratch in the chrome.I may also have some other small parts and bolts. let me know

Good luck
Chris how about this: you give me your bike and when you want to race it, you have to borrow it from me. And if you crash you're going to have to explain yourself and I'll be pissed and all that. Think that might work? That GSXR is just about the only thing you didn't crash isn't it :)
