kneedownnate....   Hey man sorry about your bike,  I laid my first bike down right after I got it.  Although the bike I had was Already beat to crap when I bought it.

 It was a 1990 cbr1000f hurricane.  The front fairings were smashed and would not even fit on the bike,it had 50,000 miles on it and ran good.  The guy who I bought it from said he laid it down about six times  :smack: .  He wanted $1000 dollars for it but after about two weeks I got for $600 dollars.

It was my first Street bike and the only street experience I had was on my moms HD.  I laid it down in a parking lot riding a wheelie I way to small of a space.  The rear brakes were down to metal and I set the front end down and pressed the rear brakes and they locked up and slid the bike out from under me.        It was just out of stupidity.        I had the bike for about 7 months and just sold it here about 3 months ago.  Lets just say i was doing some stuff that was not meant for the street and could have killed myself or somebody else.  I think it was a good decision, as much as i miss it.  For now i am going to stick to dirt bikes.
