+1^. We ZX6R riders aren't the only ones who do stupid stuff, are we?? Case-in-point: I was at the track wrenching on the race-bike. Then went to watch the races. Got to the spot to watch from (on a Honda Z50) when one of my friend told me that my son was goofing off on the other 50. So, I was gonna go tell him not to goof off. Here I go: decided to rev the little thing out in 1st gear, shift in second, rev it and pull up on the bars to do a wheelie! No problem; that little thing came up so fast that I looped it and came down on my knee hard. That was almost a month ago and I am still feeling the pain. So, make sure not to goof off on your way to tell someone else not to goof off. Highly hypocritical!

1. I had a sup_uni esque moment (not nearly as bad). Walked home from the pub, absolutely faced. Got to the parking lot behind my apt. to find a hand written threat tapped to my bike. Read somthing like... stop parking in my spot or i will blah blah blah to your bike. Thing was, no one hadassigned spots, it was just a first come first serve deal. Next i got pissed off and start storming towards the apt. building to kick some ***, then i started thinking about how truly easy it would be to do somthing evil toa bike (my bike) and i decided to just bite my pride and move the girl. Sure enough, im not paying any attention and i get my pant leg caught up in the peg somhow (really spikey supermoto peg) and tople the bike over ontop of myself. MCFLY!

2.I live in Canada. It snows alot where i live. It was early spring and i was selling a 2002 gsx-r600 (go ahead, make your comments ). It was about midnight and i was loading the bike into my truck for an early delivery next morning. The weather had been OK that day but it had just turned to **** as i was setting up my ramp (wet soggy snow). I fired the bike up and was going to ride it up the ramp right away but then i decided to let it warm up for abit and i stepped inside. Got to having a bevvy with the old man and when i went back out everything was quite soggy. Foolishly i decided to ride up the ramp anyways. Got a good run at it and everything was fine... i stayed off the throttle on the way up the ramp in an effort to not loose traction but it backfired on me. I had lost quite abit of momentum by the time i hit the crest of the ramp and i had to reapply the throttle.... ... Yes... the rear spun up and i got spit off the bike right at the top. I landed on my back (about a 5 ft. drop i reckon) with the bike following right ontop of me. At this point i really started to regret warming it up as the hot exhaust began to burn through my jeans and into my leg. Thankfully my brother had just pulled in the drive and was able to pull the bike off me before i was injured badly. To top it all off, i couldn't sell the bike because when the rad hit my chest it crumpled enough to spring a leak. Worst part is, I can't ride any bike up a ramp now, i have to lift it in because im too scared to havethat happen again.
