so after 2 years with my bike its gone! i was going fo a nice trip here in northern california. It was perfect weather i was ridding along, all of a sudden a car slams its brakes to make a sudden Lt turn no signal nothing. I didnt stop soon enough, i tried to aviod him but in a single lane that made it tough. I went to the right to go around him but i didnt have enough room, that and the road and gravel had about a 4 inch step. I lost control slammed to the ground rolled a few times, it was a scary feeling people ran to help me a fellow rider helped me pick my bike up after i was able to get up. To make it worse i touched poison oak so i ended up at the hospital i got checked out i got fractured ribs road rash ive bin healing and i have to say im very happy to be okay. Now that sad part is i did $7,000 dollars of damage so my bike is gone. Luckly my insurance will pay it off, but i will admit i was angry i fell i hated seeing my bike in the ground it wasnt drivable so i had to get it towed. The worst part may be that its the end of my riding i have a family im alive not so broken, maybe its time to just take a step back, well at least for now my wife quite for me. All i can say is enjoy your fz6 it was my first bike i had a blast riding it and remeber be safe out there
