i really don't know what it is worth i thought $500 shipped was a good deal but i don't really know what shipping will cost.
and killer the engine needs a full rebulid so it doesnt matter what i did with it. the thing ran fine had 27k on it blew a little smoke so i took it in thought my warranty i bought with the thing would cover it but they didn't. cylinder need to be bored. .25 over as you should know normal use at about 25k a superhawk needs a top end. the shop i went to wanted to do a full rebulid and that was to much for the warranty company.
ill get pics soon need to make room in the garage to get to the parts.

i don't know where i herd 25k was normal for a top end but it said something about the hi compression blows out the top of the cylinders and tapers them so you need to bore them and get new pistons and rings that's all this one needed but the shop tried to screw the warranty company and do a full rebulid.
and like i said i really have no idea what to sell this for i figor only parts worth any thing are the heads and cylinder maybe the tranny but some one might want the stater or something.

This bike has very low compression to begin with, so you're wrong on that point to begin with. Second off, I know guys who have 50k on their high compression ZRX's without a problem. I say this is worth 200 max.

Wow Codfish, i'd heard some really dumb comments in the past
but your whole "hi-compression eats the tops of the pistons" line...thats along the lines of "stickers give u hp", "my intake gives me 25hp" etc etc
educate yourself a little bit. because CLEARLY the shop thought u were a doofus and tried to take u for everything u've got.

it doesn't eat the top of the positions it wares out the top of the cylinder. like i said i don't know were i read this i think it was on here a wile ago but every thing it said is wrong with my motor ie the cylinders are out of spec and the rings are warren down. i do know how to use a micrometer and snap gages so unless the shop did something to my motor just to screw me over then i don't know.
on the other hand this is a clasafide ad i i want to sell some stuff it is simpel you want it or you dont if you dont want it then dont post

Every time I read this guy's posts, my head hurts from the 2nd grade spelling and 3rd grade grammar.
After what you've done to that poor bike, you should just give away that motor to anyone willing to deal with the basket case you've made, Cod.
