Cool

Obviously the lower the better for you but I would not pay more than $9K.
Figure out the minimum for a remanufactured engine plus labor $2.5K to $3.5K
The R1 is very becoming more rare every day, so factor that in.
I paid $14K for my R1 in great conditions, runing engine with 61K, new tires and battery and that was 1999.
So factor in a few more years of depreciation, no runing engine, add to that the car is rare and the popularity of the Fast & Furious.
Good luck

Tell him to read and post here and see what offers he get.
Not more that $9K for sure.
Ask him if he were to fix the engine to stock spec what would he sell the car for then????
