yea dude its destroyed...i'll send u sum pics of it.. u still want that spare key to that zx-6?

 

You guys must have a different "policy" when it comes to either you borrowing a bike or a friend borrowing a bike from you than we do here in Nor-Cal. Its common knowledge around here that if you borrow something.....YOU BREAK IT, YOU BUY IT. I'ld kick my friends *** after he healed up if he told me to **** off....

 

yeah that sucks... hope you're friend is ok and hopefully he gets you another bike.. Yeah you shouldn't have let him borrow it, but still he wrecked it so he shouldn't even question having to pay.

A few weeks ago a friend was riding next to me and was videoing me while on the bike and I stood it up in 2nd going about 25 and brought it a little behind bp to slow it down, and my peg folded in on me.. it's happened a few times except all the other times I was going like 5mph so I just walked with the bike. When I came off the back of the bike it came down and went towards my friends bike and took out the whole tail section.. So now I'm replacing the sub/tail etc.. so point of the story is, after he gets better he needs to figure out what he's going to do to replace your bike.

 

that sucks atleast hes alive....was it ur buddy who rode up with ya....yeh email me some pics and ill send ya my address and send ya some pics of the zx6r..u wont believe its the same bike....gregpennix@gmail.com

 

no title, no insurance, no registration


I just really wanna know if your friend had a license or at least a permit? Hell I wanna know if he even has a CAR license??


And you still let him ride it to work knowing it's not to be on the road..

 

It's not about knowing your friend, it's about human nature and what most people would do. No matter what it will put a strain on your friendship one way or another.

My best friend shot me with a 9mm. He thought the gun was empty and pointed it at me and fired from less than 10 feet away. I thought I was taking my last breaths. He doesn't even begin to understand what he did to our friendship and more importantly my life. I worked hard to get back to where I am today physically and financially. It's not like on TV.

Besides, man up...you are the one that lent it to him knowing it was not legal to be on the road and that both of you run from the cops.

 

If your 'friend' is the kind of guy to tell you to **** off, he isn't your friend

At the same time, if you wreck your friends bike, and his only worry is about your bike that's in worse shape then your friend, then the must not be THAT great of a friend.

 

I treat my objects like women. that being said, I dont let friends ride my bikes or my women.

 

PARTING OUT 2006 CBR 1000RR!! haha.. wuts still good: front end (forks, clip ons, front wheel, brakes, etc.), frame (no title), engine, driver and passenger sets, driver and pass. seats, swing arm, rear brake assymbly.. more stuff that can be parted out juss havent started breakin it down yet to see wut all ive got.. juss lemme know wut u want

 

Are you really that naive to think that the justice system doesn't make mistakes? I wanna live in your perfect world! I always read about people being freed from prison after 20 + years for some bullshit they just wanted to pin some poor **** on to close a case. You think that **** doesn't happen with stuff less significant than rape / murder?

 

This **** happens all the time.. I really do hope you get what you deserve out of the situation but to hear otherwise wouldn't surprise me in the least. Good luck!

 

No, but are you really that gullible to believe the "some guy stole my bike, ran, got away, and I got in trouble for it" story?

Sure it happens, justice system fails, ALL the time. But I guarantee a LOT more people actually run in their vehicle and get away, and report it stolen afterwords.. Then the amount of people that actually have their vehicle stolen, THEN get in trouble for it

I actually KNOW of a few people who have pulled that ****. A couple got caught and paid for it, and a few got off without a problem, had their parents/family go pick up their car and never turned themselves in.
But I don't know a SINGLE person who had their vehicle stolen then was taken on a highspeed chase

 

Well....those are two COMPLETELY different subjects!

Dude shouldn't have lent it out if the guy wasn't a good friend. The level of friendship SHOULDN'T have anything to do with the final outcome of who pays for the bike. Borrower wrecked it.....borrower pays for it!

I just lent my FF stunt bike to a friend to do a show with this weekend because otherwise he wouldn't have been able to ride w/ me and my boys. It's fully understood that if he breaks something....he replaces it. Should always be how it is...

 

yea it wuz my friend that rode up there with me.. iono if im gonna be able to get pics of it before i start breakin it down but shoot me sum pics of tha zx-6 n lemme see wut it looks like

 

Yea well if he decided not to pay and dude took him to court guess who would win? His friend. No insurance, he had permission from the owner, this has your fucked written all over it. Hopefully he's honorable!

 

exactly... he is a very good friend of mine and i expect him to treat the situation as i would if i wuz in his shoes which would be to pay him back. which im very positive he will... its juss prolly gonna take longer for him to pay me back than i'd like cuz hes not in real good shape to be workin anytime soon and for all of you commenting sayin im not worried bout him... ive already went n seen him n the hospital first thing this mornin and hes doin alright for goin down at 100 mph.. hes rashed up to hell n back pretty bad and broken wrist but he's not in critical care... im very happy that my friend is still here to raise hell n party with me like we alwayz do after he gets well... juss dissapointed bout my bike thas all....no anger towards him juss towards the situation......

 

I'm not saying his friend shouldn't pay for anything. But if his friend doesn't pay for it, what is the thread creator REALLY gonna do about it?
I'm just stating he is an idiot for letting a friend ride a 'minty' bike illegally on the road, KNOWING he is most likely to run..

And the fact his post made it seem like he is way more worried about the bike then his friend. And if your worried about your bike soo much, then why the **** would you loan it to someone in the first place, AND without insurance.

Either way you look at it, it shouldn't have been on the road illegally. Owner shouldn't have loaned it out knowingly letting it be rode on the street. He should have had insurance if this bike was soo minty, that way borrower could pay the deductible, and everything would be fine.

Going for your 'friends' throat first thing when he gets out of the hospital is fucked IMO, and really makes me ask the question "how good of a friend is he"

I'm sure when he gets out of the hospital, all bandaged up, in pain, wondering how much jail time/probation he is looking at for felony evasion, how he is gonna cover his 10 grand in medical, hes gonna be thinkin "damn can't wait tell I can get back to work to fix my friends bike!"

 

You should have said this in the FIRST post instead of coming in with



"I mean he looks like a third degree burn patient, but dude my minty bike is destroyed with no insurance!"

 

well "towlieee" u made sum pretty good points... but u act like u don't do illegal **** on teh road on at least a weekly basis... ur a a stunter are you not?.. i mean come on... and he's got insurance so the medical is gonna pretty much be covered..

 

haha yea i guess it does kinda seem that way cuz of the way i put it but thas not the case at all... i wuz scared shitless when i hurd bout it.. i juss knew he wuz paralyzed or dead.. but when i got the ER it wuznt near as bad as i expected and im very glad bout that..
