Wolfie 0 Posted May 6, 2011 Hi all!I was told about the site by Greg, so i thought i had beter join!i DID have 1998 Suzuki TL1000R, picked her up on the 3rd of may and by the 4th of may she looked like this...sigh..less the 24 hours i had the bike, i was a bit unsure about her to begin with as she as a bit overwieght for my liking (just under 200kg)but i was really happy with the was she shifted! not quite as nutty as my last bike, a KTM 950 Supermoto, but i think some fruity cans and a PCIII would of sorted that.i expect she will be written off but my partner was to buy so they can do her up.as for me i suffered streched tendons in my left pelvis and ankle and some brusing to the elbow, which fecking hurts!long story short..the truck reversed into me...dont know what bike i will get next, three on the short list1> another TLR2> Aprilia RSV10003> a Triumph Speed Triple 955or i might say bugger it and get a Tuono!! anyways..thanks for reading my tale of woe and when back on the road hope to see some of ya!

Herb 0 Posted May 12, 2011 Lucky escape though eh?I can beat your record of one day though. When I was lad I got an RG125, insured it, donned my new Frank Thomas gear, set off, and a mere 2 miles from home, I fell off on a corner and broke my leg! DOH!
