Default My wreck today.

I was playing around today on my bike and was out pulling up wheelies. I pulled a 12 o'clock wheelie and when the tail touched the ground I slammed my rear brake and forgot to hold on. I fell off the back when the bike flipped forward and since there was no one holding the handle bars the bike decided to flip a few times and then slid into a car. I landed on my back and rolled a couple of times. I'm fine though, the extent of my injuries is a tiny scratch on my knee and road rash on my back from my jacket sliding up. The bike is completely repairable, frame, tripple tree, and wheels are fine just needs plastics, tank, clip ons, basically the whole front end. I will be fixing it to give to my wife, I won't be keeping the ZX-7 for myself....I'll be getting a 10R or Gixxer 1000 (then my wife can take my place here, jk).

My helmet didn't occur any impact. I ripped my jeans pretty nice, ruined my shirt, and scuffed my jacket (almost sliced through)

Here's the pics.

a 14 is definatly a possibility. and it will definatly rule out track day. I think it would definatly change my riding style. It can still handle well, but its not a 375lb track bike. Id still wheelie a 14, but not like my 7. my 14 wheelies would probably be power only, i wouldn't use it to stunt, but just outrun EVERYONE who gets in my way lol. well see, its definatly gona be a while
