Angry Roommate wrecked my bike!

Around 6pm I let my roommate take my bike to ride with some friends. His bikes been down for a couple months due to bad mechanic work so I felt bad. At 9:30pm he calls me from the ER saying he did a wheelie in front of a trooper, ran, and crashed. So he's in the ER getting ready to go to jail and my bike has been impounded. Luckily I know the trooper and he said since I wasnt riding it I didnt deserve to have it seized. So now I have to wait til Monday to go get it and see how bad it is. All I was told is the tailsection got ripped off and the exhaust is trashed. Thats all my roommate could see from in the cop car. I hope its not too bad, he went down in the grass so it may have caught on something and flipped but I dont know.

I think I can safely say it will need new handle bars and new headlights along with the tail and pipe. So that pretty much means its cosmeticly fucked since it is naked. I just hope the frame, forks, and motor are good. Brandon said he'd think about buying it for a track bike and if that stuffs good then I hope he'll pick it up. I'm pretty pissed about this and Im glad he was ok. He dislocated his shoulder, other than that he's fine.

Sorry but I just had to vent!!

-Frankie

You may want to adopt my no free rides policy... You & Dingo should consider yourselves lucky you got to ride my new Z...

But that is the end of the free rides

Yeah, but your bike is a bit different. Not many people out there riding would know what to do with a 500hp Busa.

Sorry about your bike.
I've never been weird about letting people I trust ride my bikes.
However, I've paid the price as well.

Hope your buddy heals and smarts up.

If you break it, you buy it.

this should be "the golden rule" when it comes to riding other peoples bikes.
