The Triumph 675 may be too much too. His only saving grace on that is if he can short shift to stay out of the serious power.

I hope he doesn't ride faster than his guardian angel can fly.

Oh yeah, I forgot how much better a 600 handles AT A DEAD STOP! Bike capabilities had nothing to do with him scraping it up.

And Ranger's comment in the thread came right after him buying a new bike. If the comment was directed toward an earlier post, that's what the quote function is for (though his follow up comment pretty much negates your argument on his behalf).

Update:
My buddy is in the hospital. He is pretty tore up. Broken bones, and rash.
He was taking off from a stop, gave too much throttle, panicked and grabbed the front brake, but he was able to regain control. Then around the next curve at around 50 mph lost control and high sided. The Daytona is totaled. But he's alive to tell about it.

Pics or it didn't happen. And I'm guessing no pictures will follow.

Starting to wonder myself.... Seems a tad bit too "perfect" of a story...
