Default 02 S4 pricing

I apologize for this being my first post, but I spend most of my time reading rather than responding. Long story short I bought an 02 S4 that had been wrecked and have slowly been putting it back together over the past year or so. In retrospect I got in over my head after learning quicky the price for parts of the Italian bikes. Original damage included a dented tank, snapped bar, and many rashed pieces on the left side of the bike. After getting most of the big parts repaired I ended up knocking over the bike in the garage before I had even ridden the damn thing. Ending up putting a finger nail clipping type chip/gouge in the paint, and somehow the radiator got tweaked when it fell over. Then about a month later I noticed the speedo needle pointing straight down (well past zero). After that I lost most of my motivation to finish. I have a used radiator I got off ebay, still uninstalled that goes along with it if I don't put it on first. I also have 2 black keys as well as the red key, after I maneged to track down the original owner. The bike itself has right at 1200 miles. Unfortunately when the insurence settled on the bike after the first wreck the title was surrendered and I found out the hard way I can't just get it back. I have been told that once its completed it can be inspected and a rebuilt title would be issued, but since I haven't finished putting it back together I am not exactly sure if thats going to work out or not. Its been sitting in a climate controlled garage ever since I got the bike originally.

I guess now for my question, I am thinking about letting it go if anyone is interested but have no idea where to start on price. I am not looking to get rich but don't want to get taken either.

Thanks in advance,
Adam

You should ride the bike and enjoy it for a while.
I don't think you can get more than 5-6k for a salvage title bike.
Does it have any aftermarket parts?
I hate to say it but EBAY might be the best place to sell it.
