Default Re: Is my '01 curvy a Y or a K1?

Perhaps it has... Does it matter as long as it was fixed? Mine was mangled at one point early in it's life, it got basically a whole new side, doesn't bother me as it was fixed- actually means a load of parts down the rhs are newer than the left

Matt, I think you're being a bit naive.

Your bike is, what, 8 years old? Possibly 4 previous owners, potentially all newly qualified inexperienced riders. Look at the number of spills reported on this site alone.

All you can hope that, if it has been binned, it was rebuilt by an insurance company. At least it would have been done to a high standard.

I've had two Svs, both of which I can confidently say haven't been crashed, although my faith may be misguided. The only 100% way to be sure is to have owned it from new.
