Ill tell the mileage when i get the battery back in it since its a digital odometer.

And yes, i suppose it is job security, but i REALLY hate to see someone rag a bike that was, at one time, a nice bike. And it was actually a bike a guy i know just acquired from a guy who liked the crystal...

I guess you could say the guys trying, but he's not trying very hard.

looks like a guy who was too cheap to pay anyone to fix his bike. Like we used to say at our shop, "Pay me now or Pay me later". I guess the guy figured burned exhaust valves are WAY cheaper to fix than just having a good mechanic repair a busted exhaust stud, Lol.

He needs a trophy for Jimmy Rigger of the month, maybe year. JB weld and a bungie strap will fix anything! The only thing missing was some duct tape!

He must have dumped it on the right side to damage the fork leg and exhaust like that. Looks like someone gave him a "love tap" on the rear fender.
I just hope my exhaust valves never get to looking like that. I know it's an EVO but kind of gas was he burning in there? Kerosene?
