Well, at least he took the MSF. Best thing you can do at this point is make sure he invests in some decent gear beyond just a helmet, tank top, and sneakers...

Yea. So yesterday he rolls up to the house with his new Gixxer, in a t shirt, shorts and chucks. He at least had a helmet.


I face palmed and handed him my Icon leather jacket and draggin jeans and said to go change for the ride home or I was taking his keys. Couldnt help his chucks... but at least he got home safe.

Bike was sick, but I expect him to have an oh sh** moment real soon...

Well... he did it.... he dropped it at a light.
Scratched up the right side, and cracked the fairing. Also he bent the front brake lever and broke the right mirror as well.

No frame sliders...


At least he was at a stop
