I'm claiming his insurance.
What right do they have to take away my bike?
Are they allowed to do that?

heya RG ,
i went through similar crap last year.
this is what i learnt;

because you are claiming against his insurance,
they don't have any right to take away your bike.

if (stress if ...

if your into dumb/stupid humor (and i am)
such ideas are potentially more fun than a barrell of monkeys.

at last year's toy run
a bloke was exhibiting a ZZR250 drag bike he built for his 16yo son.
all he had done was fit a turbo and elongate the swing arm.
(turbo was from a diahatsu or maybe ...

Carver i went and looked at your other thread.. exactly what Kawasaki do you own?????

yep tanyathecheeky ,
you've gone and caught me out ...

Motorcycle/s: 2006 Suzuki Across x916 Turbo GSX250bs (HOT PINK) ;)

... i'm offering it for sale at the moment,
and it comes with a free a bridge ...

how about the track?
as with no mirrors at the track, can you also do without hearing?

if ya do, does it get ya into a/the zone?

safety-wise, sound, etc......

very interested in the topic,
on the road, weighing up safety -vs- benefits is a big concern!

benefits include;
- more powerful
- smoother
- faster

(raised a similar topic on another forum <click here> if ya wanna have a squiz at it)

believe that ppl on ...

My vote is for a Solid; Plain White (or Bright Colour);

IMHO;
- White most likely to be noticed in someone's peripheral vision*
- White reflects the most light; hence keeping your head cool
- Plain Colours are the Cheapest
- You can't see your helmet whilst wearing it

*I know people will say ...

Hey oz4x4 ,
Hope ya feeling better!

It's funny, the first thing i noticed was i have a watch mounted in exactly the same spot on my ZZR250 . :lol:

You may yet be lucky, with you bike that is,
my bike recently suffered less damage than yours and it was written-off.

< Repair Quote $3200 ...

Thanks again Felix, :)
a bit of positive encouragement makes the decision easier.

Also, one of my friends just got his [L]earner's Permit at HART.
If i keep the 2fiddy, he can use it to get some riding experience.


You're spot on about the gear; proving it wasn't serviceable was the hassle ...

If I am reading that right, you would still be up nearly $2k after fixing it?? I wouldn't have to think about that...

Hey Felix,
thanks for the encouragement. :)

I must admit on paper it looks like i am $2k up,
however in reality it ain't as good as it looks.
(As is the case with accidents ...

Hey Timbo,
your lucky it came in just under $3000, and they fixed it!

Suffered similar damage to my ZZR250 when a [P]-Plater
lost control of his mum's car in the wet, slid out 180 degrees,
crossed into my lane and sent me sliding down the road.

(Damage; Front Wheel fairing, RHS fairing, RHS ...

If anyone is interested, and i can find the paperwork,
i will post up the prices.

NetRider was the first forum i ever read.
From there i followed someone's post into here. :D

i am very saddened with what is going on with at the moment, :cry:
but after all the MRA bashing that has taken place on NetRider,
it is kinda like of poetic justice or some sort irony .
