Do anyone know where you can find a list of repairable write offs? How do you go about finding this sort of thing out?

As I'm still looking for a ZX7 or ZX6 I can turn into a tracky.....

Cheers

I guess you could look for the insurance companies auctions, forums, ebay

or you could buy one of my trackies and save yourself all sorts of hassles

links below for auction houses - they have Sydney Auctions as well as on-line bidding available.

I found one damaged ZX6, but the frame looks rooted. It appears to have a hole in it.

How do you go about getting these things assessed and / or repaired?

make when looking at write-off that they are "repairable" not "Statutory" write-off's if you ever want to register - otherwise frames can rarely be fixed if they are written off - unless you are happy to bog!!

source two bikes to make one - or look for a frame at wreckers

Can you send me some details on your trackies....I'm just a little concerned about the age of the bikes......

I reckon it's often cheaper to buy an existing tracky, rather than buy a wreck and convert it into a tracky. The costs can really add up. It's one thing if you budget for a set of race glass, some rearsets and bars, only to find the forks are bent and the frame isn't straight as well - the budget just got blown!

Found this one on ebay, it's an 09 6r with rear end damage

That bike is seriously rooted, if you have a look at the swingarm there would more than likely be damage to the main frame etc as well.
That one would require a total strip down & probably new frame, subframe & swingarm....... hardly worth the effort
