Well, I was able to putter home yesterday. Nothing like sitting waiting for
a light to change revving the bike at 3000 rpm. Many thanks for all the
suggestions. Now that the bike is home I will start to tinker and see if I
can get it back up and running.
Thanks again,

I'm not sure how much is interchangeable, but I'd let everything go for
$450. I'm $1600 into a $500 bike, so.....
Depending on where you lived and didn't want it parted out, $300 (if you
had to travel).

Well, I think what bums me out the most is that I actually bought the bike
in this condition, but I had no idea. I'm great when it comes to buying
used machinery, especially motorcycles. But, I don't wanna fall into the
whole 'I'm a victim' bit.

Well, the heart's willing, but the resources are far from plentiful. Oh,
that, and now I'm out a bike! Balls.

Wow, what a coincidence. My drummer, whose name just happens to be Eric,
works for a company called Drain Shooters (yes, a Roto-Rooter knock-off),
and every time we practice, he tells me stories just like yours. Though a
constant source of amusement, my heart really goes out to you guys for the
bullshit you endure.
