Not a very good day riding today, a buddy went down. We were coming off an exit ramp, decreasing radius. I was the 1st bike, another guy was behind me and the guy who crashed was third. This is his first season on a bike and just got his license last week. He just came into it a bit fast, not by much,, not realizing it was decreasing. I feel more leaning and throttle would have saved him, but I wasn't in his boots. He jumped the curb and went right into a sign which kept him from going into traffic.
The 2nd riders passenger saw him in the the mirror and told us he fell. We turned around and when we got to him he was sitting up with his helmet off, few bumps and bruises but otherwise okay.
The bike isnt as bad as you'd expect, looks like a new nose, both sides, hesdlight, intake tune, fairings stay and it should be good.
We tossed into the back of a suburban and away we went, the cops didn't want to let one of us ride it the few blocks to a friends.
If anyone has any of the those for an 03-04 gixxer1000 please post up a price or PM. We've begun gathering parts already to get it mended. The other guy with us can paint, do it'll a nice custom look when she's fixed.
