MY GOD, MAN! I haven't read the thread but I am guessing you are the one who started the post about snapping your bike in half!

Those pics are a bummer. Not quite as big a bummer as busted jaws or the like, but still a bummer.

Do we have any 17 year old riders here who have been riding thousands of miles without cagers smacking into them or otherwise causing them hurt? :( I'm normally totally opposed to any age based...well...anything really (I was an early bloomer... out of school and working as a computer programmer at 15... it has biased me...) but between Cameron and you I've got to admit that even I suffered a little questioning doubt.

On the other hand, you heal quicker at 17....

Man I've never seen a tank that banged up before. Haven't seen your crash thread, hope you're OK.

Oh god, that's horrible.

I'm glad you're healing up though.

I had a good 60,000 street km under my belt by my 18th birthday and never hit the asphalt until after my 28th. It would be far more difficult in a big city however...
By the way, what the hell happened to the Nighthawk??
