Default Break or repair.

Hi all
new on here, just picked up a not so mint 2002 cbr600fs that came off worst against a bus.
The question is should I break it for parts or have a go at putting it back on the road?
The top fairing and clocks are missing ( nicked at roadside) dented forks, rest of fairing not too bad but most importantly there's a dent in the frame, oh yeah and the tank don't look to handsome.
If I do rebuild it should I get a new frame or repair it.
Any ideas much appreciated.
Cheers.
Paul

Welcome to CBRF Paul!! Wow, that bike sounds like alot of work, but winter is coming and maybe you want to have a project to occupy yourself until warmer temps arrive. Try posting your question (with some pics if you can) in here..

..or maybe the General Tech section. They can give you far better advice than this lowly welcome dog. Good luck with whatever you choose to do and enjoy the forums!
