    I honestly think your brain isn't in YT'er mode, it's in business man mode, and that can be the right decision for you. But if you combine your thinking, $2k isn't bad when you also get content from it making up some extra income, with the views you get and extra income you can potentially create on these video with merch etc too, I honestly believe almost any project is worth you taking on with the current state of your channel.

      Don't get me wrong, I think about this with every purchase, just trying to be a bit more selective on which projects I'm going to be taking on. I do have my eyes on some newer sportbikes to rebuild on the channel

    The right decision, man. That’s one where you either sell it on, or bust it up for parts and sell them. That’s an awful lot of time and money for just a little bit of profit.

    I am surprised you brought that bike for $3k and able to sell it for more. It would be great if you show your viewer best practices of buying a wreck bikes. Like things to look for before buying it, going into it having a list of parts prices, and how much time it is going to take to rebuild it.

    • @RKMotorsports
      @RKMotorsports  7 месяцев назад

      There are a ton of factors that can play into the estimation of parts and a lot of it is experience being able to know quickly what parts are usually priced at. At the end of the day even I can miss things when checking over a bike and one simple miss could be a very expensive mistake
