Crashed and burned

Post by AyJay »

well 4 weeks ago...some days after i first said hi here I was just about finished with my bike and was going to the dealership near me to check out a sound in my engine I didnt like.....just some kilometers away from home

And i put my bike on the ground...BAD

I broke my shoulder and sprained knee wrist and thumb
and the bike....well head on with a beemer witch was totaled
I was rushed to the emergency and coudnt wait o get out the next day to see my bike
Was a sad thing to see, looked like bunch of scrap metal
(i'll post pics of it later) forks fokked, engine fokked, the frame bits that is under the engine fokked, tank cover fokked, brake discs fokked, seats fokked
front fender fokked

I bought a donor bike the next week and started rebuilding it

Now it runs but i got some trouble with the electrical but i was a little trip arround the block and it felt real nice

Glad to see you made it out. Kudos for gettin right back on the horse too. Good to see you managed to salvage the tail. Same exhaust too right? Did the mirrors get fooked?
