This is the only time I'd consider it for road use. The SV650 K5S I sold to Rai86 wasn't written off but very nearly after I wedged it under a Honda Accord. I negotiated with the assessor to keep it off the register and did the work myself to keep the costs down far enough to make it viable for them to rebuild. I made money on that bike from the word go and again, it looked better after I'd rebuilt it than when I bought it.
Generally you end up paying too much for a rebuilt write-off that isn't as good as a pre-loved one.
