Ive had an offer on a cbr900 fireblade that i currantly have at the moment that i need to shift as its un secure and with moving house in the next few weeks i have no room to store the bike 
Ive been in contact with a guy with regards to doing some sort of deal for his GTI-R rep..
42000 miles SR engine
Full GTI-R kit and interior
Full s/s system ect
The car used to have a GTI-R engine but had to remove due to insurance reasons so the deal will come with a whole load of GTI-R stuff apart from the main part (The engine) but will come with box,diff,transfer ect ect ect
Im clueless o go ahead with the deal or not bare in mind i will have no storage for the bike in the next few weeks 
Theres not ONE patch or rust in sight on the shell its very clean also.

I know without the engine its pretty worthless but as i said i dont have room for the bike 
I could lay my hand on a turbo engine for it as my mate just got a smashed gtir for part then sell the car on or whatever...
The cars got a years MOT and TAX guy just got back to me and is willing to come all the way from london to pick it up.

the paint match on the front wing is pretty bad, it may have had rough accident repair damage in the past. try and find out from him first

Why would some1 remove the engine tho would be my main worry??Has it been recorded as removed??
And the wing colour looks a good bit out as you can see it in both the pics at different angles/distances.

it could have been repaired for cash and not gone through the insurance company. I'd definately ask for a few more pictures of that area, it also looks like the nearside front indicator is clear and the otherside isnt so could have been replaced which is another sign of accident repair. on the other hand that could just be the picture angle

Only reason it was removed due to insurance or something i dont fully understand it either.
He said everythings there apart from engine as he sold it, hes got a court date on the 2nd he said regards insurance or something with the car and something to do with engine 
Maybe running about with the turbo engine and still under the 1.4
I have no idea tbh 
regards to the wing colour ive just been on the phone to him hes going to get me more pictures, he said its 100% the same as the body colour, the car hasnt been in a smash or anything ect.
