how many miles on it? do you know the last time the wheel bearings, plugs, steering head bearings, etc was replaced? Also be sure to check the date code on the tires. I'm anal about chains and tires, just because you never know what they've been through or how they were (mis)treated. If the motor runs good, leave it alone, check the valves to be sure, but if its tight, looks like a good buy.

52,000 I dont have any of the service history on it. It was bought certified from a place and a mechanic with a good rep. The Vales were just set prior to sale. I will probably replace the bearings all around and chain while i have it appart. Thanks for the reminder on the tire codes I will check them. They look like they were in good condition but you can never be to sure.

Damage to truck is $1300-1500 (would be less, but need to remove bed liner etc etc). Had inspection last night for that. Booked in for next Thursday.

Adjuster coming on Friday to inspect damage on poor Babs.
Don't know if I should be optimistic or pessimistic as of yet. Still wrestling with the idea of giving up the street at the moment.
 
Hello all.....I'm new to this site but not new to the sport. I live in Guelph and would love to get together for a ride at some point but in the meantime I just wanted to say hi.

Hello and Welcome! I'm sure you've seen the usual format of our group ride posts by now... keep your eyes open for them and away we go.
 
Speaking of that.... Another group ride time.

When : Sunday sept 3rd 9:30 am
Where : Tim hortons king street by sportsworld drive ( in the plaza with the brick. )
Duration : 2-4 hours
Route ; top secret

Not sure where we're headed. I'm getting out for a ride and figured I'd extend the offer to anyone interested. I'll have it figured out before Sunday. Was a big fan of sideroad 15 but it's chewed to sh$t so well go somewhere else. Probably north and east to start.

And yes I do like the early morning rides.

Depends on who comes out. Well decide Sunday morning. If I'm alone I'll go for a while but with others it could be just a quick rip. Feel free to put it in bold as I don't know how to do that on my phone. Lol

Cancelled. Gotta work till 2 on Sunday. Sorry.
 
So.. appraiser just left..
Looking like Babs may be totalled due to engine damage, but am uncertain at the moment.
Adjuster will get in touch with insurance company on Tuesday, which will hopefully get back to me by Wednesday.
