The only road rash I have is smaller than a business card and it barely broke the skin. Its just below my right knee on the outside of my calf.... exactly where knee pucks would sit. It never bled. I've had worse raspberries sliding into second base playing baseball..

Thats good. I'd say you got lucky on that one.

Yeah I got lucky... The fact that my left leg got run over by a dump truck full of landscaping rocks ..and it didn't break my leg... Someone was looking out for me.

I'm literally still shaking my head when I think about the dump truck.

Rider · 11-10-2008, 11:19 AM

The shop just called. They are considering the bike a total loss. $9711 to fix it.

I wonder what my insurance company will say to that. They estimated $3600 worth of damage. My insurance company has not called the shop yet and boy are they going to get a surprise. Literally a new exhaust, track plastics, front wheel, and rear sets, this bike will be a killer track bike. Frame, engine, swingarm, forks, triple tree, clip ons, headlight, taillight, and gas tank are all pristine.

Back on topic, sucks that you went down but sounds like it could have been much worse.

It could have been much worse. I'm alive... and with all my original parts in tact.

UPDATE!

Looks like the bike is going to be totaled. $9711 worth of damage. Frame, Swing arm, sub frame, and forks are perfect. I may buy it back and just part the fucker out.

I don't know what the buy back price is. Anyone looking for a track bike?
