Ouch that sucks. A guy I went to college with got hit by a car while on the dirt bike he rode to class. It almost killed him they had to life flight him to the hospital he was in bad shape. The other guy didn't see him and turned right in front of him and cut him off. He did survive after loosing a bunch of weight while recovering in the hospital though.

Again, glad you had the smarts to wear safety gear and you are ok.
This wraps up what I was gonna say. That alcohol will work tonight, but I bet ya won't have that shmirk on your face in the morning. Glad your okay, enough horrible stories on losing friends and members due bike accidents.

In the past 3 years 2 of my friends have died on bikes and is a reason why I dont ride without atleast my helmet and gloves which saved my *** tonight. It just made me realize that it could have been alot worse and I laid it down at 40, how would it feel at 140? I dont want to find out, honestly I think Im a mature adult but Im not. I love getting out on the highway and hauling ***. Im taking this as I a sign I need to chill out and be thankful Im still breathing and wait till I "mature" more. In a month or so my truck will be back up and running and I can haul *** in a vehicle that has alot more sheetmetal aorund me if I screw up or someone else does. Hell the truck ought to be faster then the bike was. Best I could muster out of the bike taking it easy out of the hole not to smoke the stock clutch was a 11.8@123, Im going to be pissed if the truck doesnt do better then that on 12#s of boost

DAMNIT! I paid that lady good money. I said "Pull out in front of him, slam on the brakes and if he dumps the bike, throw it in reverse!"

I'm getting my money back tomorrow














JFWY! Glad you walked away. Chics dig scars.

damn man, you are lucky. I'm glad you walked away from that because it could have been much worse although i'm sure i don't have to tell you that.

...one of the main reasons why im seriously considering getting rid of my bikes and getting out of the sport (hobby).
