I felt left out.....

[McGee]

I really felt left out after yokos off.

Well long story short. Freezing weather thought bollox Ill take my bike it will wake me up. Thermals on and off I went. Ace ride as always to college. Had a shit me up moment on the rail-road tracks on the way. But all was fine.


Until.


I hit the round-about right outside the college entrance and hit a patch of black ice exiting it at about 25 I guess and the bike fish tailed is the easiest way to put it and slid from under me. I stopped almost instantly but the bike just kept going hit a kurb causing it to basicly stand up and hit a barrier (stop sign thingy) and is just totaled. Oil and fluids every where.

Damage was a stupid amount for the accident. The whole left side is fucked any thing that can break did. and my yoshi can is dented to bollox.


Ironic thing is I was doing criminal investigation and my teacher is the captain of the local police station

Im pissed off in the fact that they didnt grit the roundabout as speaking to the cops have been there before with black ice accidents.

I put my claim in but rookie thinks its gonna be a write off

Pics to follow when I get her from the recovery people.

That sucks man. If its a write off buy it back. (my friends 02 zxr400 was sold for £200 and it wasnt that bad condition)

I feel a project coming on.

[.....]

Unlucky mate

I take it you were fully comp or whatever it is over in the States?

Look on the bright side - time for a new bike

Least you don't have to ride a crappy Suzuki anymore

Good luck with the claims process.

[stinkwheel]

Hey, look on the bright side. You are in the U.S., there must be someone you can sue.

Yeah fully comp.

Maybe a project. And I dunno if I will get a new bike till all the 2006 models are out.

So gutted. My yoshi sytem has been on it for just over 2 weeks and the 1000 mile service was coming up

God damn it.

Black ice sucks hard.

Really bad luck McGee, you should get onto the council or whoever about that roundabout, it sounds dodgy. Best of luck with all the kerfuffle that will follow, I hope they don't write it off.

[Jack_Cheese]

How many gixxers can you write off!? admittedly the last one wasn't your fault... Maybe the gixxer gods aren't on your side.

Seriously though, that must suck! didn't you only get the bike in september after your yam? I'm suprised a gixxer manager to crash so badly, though from my experience, it seems the flat plastic sides of faired bikes just help them slide. But then again, didn't you have R&Gs?

Streetfightered GSXR in matt black. That would rock.

I feel for you about binning your bike though I'd be irate with myself/the people that didnt grit the roundabout.

Hard lines dude

At least now you'll be able to put the bad times behind you and buy a decent bike. HONDA.

Only joking mate. It's a real pisser, sorry to hear about your loss.

Roll on an 06 eh!

[colin1]

bad luck mcgee, didnt your last bike get written off by someone reversing over it when parked up or soemthing ?
you dont have much luck

i didnt realise they even have roundabouts in america. i did a student exchange with a kid from washington dc years ago and he'd never seen a roundabout.

Buying back the write off could be a good idea. If you dont wanna get it fixed and sell it, you could strip it and sell bits on ebay.
