Yeah, I've gotten banged up pretty good before (my first wreck got me a med discharge from the Army) but the last one wasn't bad, pretty mundane lowside, gear works!

yeah it does... had I not had my boots on... I'd be in a cast... 100% sure of that

Sorry bout your wreck and its good that you can live to ride another day but dont let this discourage you from Wheeling. You just need to learn better throttle, clutch, and rear brake control. What damage was all done to this thing.... I saw you cracked your cover and rashed some plastics is that it.... I would just replace the cover and not even go through insurance it isnt worth having to pay surcharge for minor 1k- $1,500 damage.

Mr Lefty · 09-20-2008, 06:22 PM

if it was just that.. I'd still go through insurance... I've got full coverage and a $500 deductible... but the bike was totaled today... the frame was scratched, tank dented, every fairing scratched... swing arm scratched... fairing stay bent, headlight cracked... ect... 6786 worth of damage.

bike's only work 5K retail right now anyways.

scratched frame, lil dent on the tank, scratched swingarm.........sounds like a track bike

I'll be in Mississippi and I'll be back in March...

Even if the buyback is cheap enough you could probably sell it for a little bit more to someone looking for a track bike if you cant afford to have two.
