That sucks Bro! It's a tough call and I know you don't want to hear this but...I think it's time for a new bike. Even if the motor can be repaired/replaced for a reasonable amount, the frank truth is the bike isn't worth it. Besides, your frame/sub frame could be slightly tweaked. Forks could be slightly tweaked. Etc. Do you really want to pump thousands of dollars into a bike that's only work a couple grand? I'd take the money and find a really good deal on a CBR600RR and call it good. I've been both ways on this deal. I had '97 YZF1000R that I bought back after the deer and it was a POS after wards. I gave up my '01 GSXR1000 and I wish that I had kept it...although, it turned out that the frame was tweaked. Considering the age/mileage on the bike and the hit that the motor took...I'd go shopping. I may be wrong but I could have sworn that I've seen '07/'08 CBRs for about $8000 otd.
