    Default the last wheelie the old gixxer 750 will see...

    A friend took this picture with my camera..so sorry if it sucks.
    I was still bringing it up, why I'm hunched over a bit...but all the others he took sucked.



    The gixxer went down last night, ended stopping to get some food after riding all day, ended up getting a few drinks while I was there, so called my roomate to bring the car, and let him ride the bike home...

    Well he got about 200ft from the restaurant, and goosed it, doing a rolling burn out on the cold tire, and there was a slight bend in the road and there she went, leaving a nasty oil trail down the road, slid about 40ft.

    Frame slider broke off, and tore the left side up BAD, got the frame too, so I know there gonna total it. He had a jacket on so his road rash was very minimal.

    Sucks, I'll post pics up after I get it back from the tow place.

    Insurance is paying for the bike, I was actually gonna sell it soon cause I have 2 other bikes (yamaha 06 R1 and 04 R6), was trying to get a little more money for my new vette purchase, and have 3 bikes was a little overkill.

    Bike is not near as bad as expected, it was still totaled, due to the knick in the frame, It's only cause I powder coated the frame black, and it chipped a bit...Gonna hit up the auction next week it's gonna be at and buy it back.

    Complete part out on the bike.
