Crashing your R6 into a car at 80km/h isnt fun
I was riding to the gym on the weekend and came around the corner at around 75-80km/h... some guy was stopped illegally in a no park zone right after the curve... I didn't see him in time and when I did it was too late to swerve. I hit him hard and flew 25 feet landing on pavement sliding/rolling. Miraculously I walked away with some road rash abrasions, bruises, and pulled muscles. I wasnt even wearing my gear... just workout pants and a t-shirt. I spent the night in the hospital and after xrays and CT scans they gave me the all clear in the morning. Scary experience though... but not deterring me from riding... I am already purchasing (against the strong wishes of my girlfriend lol) a 2004 GSX 1000R. the R6 is a write off... headlights, handlebars, radiator, fairing on both sides, all gone... im including a pic. remember to ride safe bros...

Glad to hear you're okay bro.
You're much safer on the GSXR...having a bigger bike is like having an SUV...the bigger the better...

Glad that you are ok. This is why I hate motorcycles!
I saw a bad one when I was young...guy got decapitated. His helmet stayed on....but his body ended up on the other side of the road1. Once a cheat always a cheat!
2. YES, SHE can get pregnant the first time!
3. NO, PULLING out IS NOT a RELIABLE method of Birth Control. DAMMMMIT..... Wrap that shyte UP!!
Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.
For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free". Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire Pig, just to get a little sausage.
What the mind can conceive....the body will achieve!

sounds like its his fault- so go through his insurance company and make them payoff the bike, you could also get one of those ambulance chasers to take on your case and sue.... i dont really agree with it, but it seems like the american way......
the 04 gixxer is a bad ass bike bro!!! i ride a 01 r1 which is nice but the new gixxers and r1s are just mean... the gixxer rides better on one wheel than it does on two!!!!
