whats the chances of this, i looked at this clip and from the moment i clicked it i thought god that reminds me of my crash and thought how lucky i was tho, then a few secs later the push bike came into shot and i got goose bumps. you see i got knocked off my R1 by a push bike on a dual carrageway and have been left with my arm paralyzed. i also smashed all the ribs on my right hand side and had my lung fill with blood plus my hip dislocate and my full leg turn round the wrong way. i lay they trying to breath for ages before someone desided to come n see if i was ok as they where all messing about with the arsehole who knocked me off, sods law tho he caused it and gets a broken wrist i now only have one arm. and even tho everyone saw him pull out infront of me into that fast lane and they said so at court who do you think had to carrie the can for it and pay the cyclist compo. yes i had to pay him. £47k for a broken wrist of his own doing even tho other car drivers said he caused the crash, the law in the uk hates bikers, infact they nearly killed me making me give a breath test at the hospital even tho tho doctors said i could give a blood sample and i shouldnt even try to give a breath test as i couldnt breath. bunch of fucking wankers

The laws in the UK suck ass for sure, only in England can a fucking foreigner get better treatment than the natives.

I have a 99 900RR since 04, just put a new battery in it in Oct., one before last about 5 years. Maybe time for you to get a new one. I've been thinking about upgrading but not sure what bike I want to get next. Leaning towards 03-04 636, or maybe a 05-06 636, but the devil in me wants a 04-05 ZX10r
May just ride this one till she (or I, knock on wood) croaks.

04 ZX10R is fucking lunacy, that bike should be certified... but it's fucking fun, jesus it wants to spit you off at every corner, if we are talking 636 then 05-06 without a doubt, it's not as manic as it's older brother but it can shift.

main reason I'd prefer 03-04 is it has a bit more open ergos than 05-06 and I'm a pretty tall guy. Seems to be the problem with all the newer bikes these days, made for midgets. Big part of what I like about my 900RR is it's very roomy, just hate the carbs

[suedelover]

i have a '99 R1 & would strongly recommend one has so much low down torque that it wants to pull your arms off *L*.........& it looks sweet too !
I agree with how the law treats bikers in the UK too it's a total farce as we get blamed for everything !!!

05-06 Ninja is quite roomy, I have back problems and it doesn't bother me at all, thats why I bought that specific model, and yes you are right about the latest super sports, I sat on a R6 and it was like sitting on a BMX, not good..not good at all.

any bike is more than able to kill you if you ride like a nob or past your limits, but its the other road user that you need to think of as its them 9 times out of ten that get u or spill shit on the road to get you off. im waiting to here whats going to happen to the doctors wife up my way that killed a biker after turning infront of him to pull down her drive, as normal british papers report it as his fault with no knowing what really happend but played it up more by saying he was a well known track n road racer. few days after that tho the family had been intouch with the paper and it turns out the guy was more than just a racer he was a police bike advance insrutor for 7yrs to among other intresting things to do with bikes, i have a funny feeling tho her being a doctors wife she`ll walk away n it`ll be all his falt for her pull across the road infront of him and him going over her bonnet, im so sure i`d put money on it. fuck the rich in the uk they own the law
