Ok...here it goes...
The insurance company took photos to show the claims department how messed up it was, I myself didnt get any pictures of it before they took it to the lot.
I had Geico Motorcycle Insurance...they totalled the bike and gave me 3g's.
My buddy (the one in the picture) were just cruising up to Cuyamaca (which is a super windy country road) we were going way too fast for a turn and only my fat @ss slide out and the bike went right into the only tree in a field next to the road. Thank god I had my leathers on and I just slide right past the tree. I beleive I was going around 65-70 when I laid it down.
My mods I have done to it include...Graves Cat Eliminator Titanium Exhaust , Power Commander III USB with Dynojet fuel map for this mod, Ohlins steering damper ,Puig race windscreen, Shogun Crash Kit,*** Racing radiator guard, Vortex rear stand, AFAM 16 tooth countershaft sprocket.
I didnt get it dyno'd but my buddy says his bike with most of the same stuff was pulling around 1300cc, but I dont believe that. It was a fast fun bike. It handles like my old girlfriends 600 but just cruises way better than the 600.
These bikes last a long time if you take care of it like anything you own. And yes these are HID's.
If your looking at a first time bike go with a cc around 600. I personaly like Yamaha anything since I have a YZ250 dirtbike and a Raptor 700 quad also.
