Holy Fuck man...what the hell? I do believe in cursed machines...had one myself. bike got wrecked twice before i owned it and i put it down twice. Got ran off the road once and had a wrong gear clutch up mishap. Set it up for a lot bike, said fuck this thing and traded it for a quad. But yours takes the cake by far. Im suprised the frame isnt cracked, suspension isnt bent, and the tires still hold air lol. Those DB clamps were scary as hell, suprised they actaully held up truthfully. Being in the condition its in now, id just bare bones that thing and take it to the parking lot...go from there. Then piece it back together a little by little.

That's pretty much where it's at. There isn't anything left on it that isn't necessary (besides the stunt parts, but those are necessary for a stunt bike so), aside from the lights. Of all the bikes I've ridden so much and all that good stuff, this one is just, fuck. I don't even know. But, I love it. A lot of shit has happened with it, but it's also helped me through some rough times. It kicks my ass when my life is straight, but when something outside of it happens, it's always there for me. Sounds kinda stupid but riding is something I'm incredibly passionate about so.

Its understandable, i remember certain things that have happened in my life just by what bike i had at the time.

Yeah, sounds like you've had a bad run of it, bud. When did you start riding streets and did you take an MSF Course? Quick stop, swerving, throttle through cornering, and never brake while cornering. Common sense sh!t that I should've already learned "the hard way", but never entered my conciousness to apply it all; until the course made me contemplate it. My 3rd season riding streets and haven't wrecked it yet. Lost a GYTR exhaust clutching it up on the hwy and lost my passenger seat the same way and that's it. Gotta step up my preride inspections, I guess. Lol
Ride safe, hope things turn around for you in the future.

I actually started riding streets when I was 13, so 9 years ago. I always think about stuff like that, but sometimes shit is unavoidable. I went years with no incidents, then this bitch came along.

Everybody goes down at some point. Fu�k it, at least you lived to tell the tales.

Got it sitting up while I change the chain/sprockets and figure out this bullshit wiring issue (pretty sure I've narrowed it down now though). After putting in another ECU, relay box, fuel pump, and bypassing a couple of connecters, I think it's down to the starter relay. Got one coming tomorrow so we'll see. Anyway, got another tank on finally. All I got left after I get it running is a steel subframe, built up/hole in seat rear, and I think that's about it. Already have a 12 bar, but my subframe is tweaked so it won't mount up.
