Some of yall may have heard, I finally sold my 2002 Honda CBR954RR on 11/08/07 around 7pm.
Well a friend who works at the local Suzuki shop called me on Monday to let me know that the bike has been wrecked Bable12, they brought it in on Saturday! I thought "well I guess there have been quicker wrecks before."
So I called the buyer to see if he was ok and find out what happened. He said he was going down the street and wanted to see what it had, so he gave it some gas and shit himself when the front flew up. He laid it over on the right side but walked away.
He said he was only going about 35mph, so to me that means he rolled on it hard while in 1st gear Oops! What dumbass does this on a liter-bike? Well, come to find out, a 22 year old who has NEVER rode a bike before (other than his "friend's" bike a few times) is the dumbass that does that.
My first thought of there being quicker wrecks might have been incorrect. After speaking with him I now know that he wrecked the bike less than 2 miles away from my house the night of the sale!
This is the damage I saw at the shop: right Heli-bar is bent, bar slider/frame slider/front peg/Micron are ground down, the very back of the tail is ground down a 1/4", the right lower fairing is trashed and the clutch cover is cracked, BAD.
So needless to say, I won't need that photo on the leeve JayD! Thanks anyway.....
