the bike was never totaled out, I bought it from the dealership like this. This is the condition that I bought it in, never totaled out by an insurance company. For those of you that are making future purchases, from anywhere let me explain to you what a salvage title is: It is when an insurance company chooses to total out a vehicle or for whatever reason. It doesn't have to really exceed the 85% as required by the state of choice. It includes, but is not limited to, Fire, flood, collision, theft, or vandalism. This bike could have been a salvage title, because they cannot sell it as new, they will total it out. I just happened to be at the right place at the right time, I saved a salvage title and also this bike is under factory warranty also. They would have salvaged this bike if no one would have bought it from them. Because they already were paid from the insurance company. Anymore questions call me at 813-356-8011
