Default Buddy Dumped His Bike Tonight, 50-60mph

Turned his 2005 Suuzki GSX-R 750 20th Anniversary into a $10,000 paperweight. He was fucking around pulling a wheelie Hit 12 o'clock, lost control and dumped.

I'm glad I wasn't riding with him tonight. If I saw my best friend almost die I'd have nightmares forever. He has pretty bad road rash but otherwise is okay.

I treat my bike like a loaded gun but I swear it's not worth it. Bikes are so dangerous. Anybody who rides out there, be safe.

He saw his friend got rear ended on a bike on the freeway. It hit home(It hit him hard personally) and he decided to make a safe choice and sell his bike a few weeks later.
