Some of you remember the long ass thread Unfuckingbelievable.
The thread was about me, I got my 2000 rs250 and four days later over shot a corner and fucked my bike, All fairings were ripped off including the tank, the frame bent so much that the front wheel moved back 75mm, as well as the rear sub frame being bent, as well as my front discs being warped !
Of course all I got from here was (Newbie on a bike too powerful) - ( I had an rs250 for 6 months prior to getting my new bike and an nsr before that !
This accident was just unfortunate at the fault of me..
Anyways, I got to rebuilding and repainted everything myself, as well as doing some carbon fibre parts, Before work, in my lunchtimes and after work I have put over 100 hours into this job, A special thanx to steve at F1 engineering Saw my frame / discs being straightened for a good price !!! Awesome job man much appreciated, Also thanx to MSTRS from here who after a few easy emails made all my decals for me, again for a good price !
Ive had the bike back a week and have been thoroughly enjoying the engine output, albeit in a very different mentality, I almost gave up riding after this crash, Ive walked away from too many at such a young age, you can keep rolling those dice but soon your number is going to come up...
I am no longer worried about accidents, Ive become devoted to each quality of riding I wanted to embrace, and Im disciplined at it.
I want to live, and most of all - I dont want to put myself in a position where I could be without my bike again, - I dont want to spend another 100 hours fixing it - and I dont want to walk to work for another 2 months !. I read a couple books (sport riding techniques - and twist of the wrist ) and now ride in a very different mentality, However, I must admit, I cannot resist powerwheelies on my 250, 1st gear - no clutch, front wheel head height, bliss!
Heres quite a few pics..
