|  DAMN I DIDNT SEE THAT DOG!
SO THERE I WAS DOIN 60 DOWN A HILL  WHEN ALL THE SUDDEN WHAM!  NEXT THING I KNOW IM SKIDDING ON PAVEMENT. AFTER ABOUT FIFTY FEET I HIT A CURB AND STOOD UP. NOT EVEN CHECKIN MYSELF I START CHASING MY BIKE DOWN. AFTER ANOTHER FIFTY FEET IT STOPS. OIL ALL OVER, SMALL BITS OF PLASTIC EVERYWHERE. BLOOD SOAKED CLOTHES  . IT LOOKED LIKE A WARZONE. AFTER A QUIK EVALUATION I HAD ALOT OF ROAD RASH AND A BROKEN WRIST. MY BIKE SUFFERED THE MOST WITH A TRASHED LEFT FAIRING, A BROKEN OIL CASE COVER, BROKEN MIRROR, BROKEN FOOT PEG, ROAD RASH UNDERNEATH SEAT, BROKEN FRONT TIRE GAURD AND BENT FORKS. NOT AS BAD AS I THOUGHT  . TURNS OUT I DIDNT KILL THE DOG  BUT IM SURE ITS LIMPIN AROUND PRETTY GOOD IF ITS NOT DEAD YET THEN SOON HOPEFULLY . IT WAS A BRAND NEW 04 KATANA GSX600FK4  WITH ALMOST 2000 MILES ON IT. NOW I NEED TO FIND A PLACE TO BUY A LEFT FAIRING FOR CHEAP. AS WELL AS THE OIL COVER AND VARIOUS MINOR PARTS. IF YOU HAVE THESE PARTS OR KNOW WHERE I COULD GET THEM THEN PLEASE LET ME KNOW.... THANX CODY[/b] |
