Some person I don't even know found me and sent me this cell phone video picture of my wreck at Daytona this year.


From what I was told, the bike came with in a foot of nailing Carmichael and he was nice enough to push it off the track. The bike was mangled and l got lucky that nothing was damaged on the frame. I was carted off and no broken bones.

I straighten the handle bars out enough to get the bike home. Subframe and seat pan broken, exhaust crushed at mid point

That is kind of what the person said to me, he said he called several people to get me number because he thought I would really like to have a picture of me wreck. LOL

Dang dude. Glad you're okay. That's nuts... Did your new subframe bolt up without any issues?

bolted up with no issues, the bolts were tweaked but not enough to strip the threads. I went and bought the subframe from the Kawi rig and save a couple hundred bucks compared to dealer cost.

In keeping with the Joe Dirt theme, I'd say this sums it all up. Glad you walked away - from the cart, that is Smile
