Damn, that thing would look extra sexy if it weren’t wrecked.

Also unrelated, but whenever I see a Buell, the guy riding is always wearing a half helmet.

Ooooh, that does look good. Kinda 80's vibe going on there.

Any plans for him to get a new one?

nope. driver didn’t stop. nor did the other ppl driving by. jack-wads.

I used to have that fear. No i have an app that lets 3 contyacts know my EXACT location if something happens (uses accelerometers)

its the crashlight function on ESR (eatSleepRide) local app to me, guys and gall running it are a great group.

I honestly didn’t expect you to answer that way. That’s really an incredible lack of humanity. I hope they catch the person somehow.

That moment when those 3 contacts are informed that you dropped your phone.

its got a time (2 minutes IIRC) for you to stop the sending.

its actually quite clever. (that said, if you crash and break your phone you are SOL)

I always keep in mind most car drivers can’t even see a WHOLE TRAIN while driving.

“nope. driver didn’t stop. nor did the other ppl driving by. jack-wads.”

This is so beyond infuriating that I can’t even begin to try to understand it. What in the actual fuck is wrong with people?!?!

insurance would write the bike off, Xb’s havent been in production for like 8 years now. its worth like 4K on a really good day.

If the main frame section (which doubles as a fuel tank) wasnt screwed, along with the motor, he could rebuild it.
