Some of you are aware I had a little accident on the RSV last friday afternoon. The shop called and the repair bill came to $20,522.61 before even checking the frame. Needless to say it's totaled. I really loved that bike and my wife and I had a lot of great times in the 2yrs and 34K miles we got to put on her. On the other hand, It is only plastic and metal and I walked away. Kind of have mixed feelings right now. I'll be looking for a new bike in the near future but I doubt it will be an RSV. The next bike I buy will have ABS since I'm pretty sure the wreck I had could have been avoided if I'd had it.

On Sunday (mothers day) I decided to invite my new girlfriend to go for a ride on the RSV. after a good 30 min into the ride she was feeling good about being on the back so it was time for some twisties well off we go 1st one scared her a little but she has nerve second one was great the third one even scared me as i was coming out of the turn the rear tire BLOWS out!! got it stoped ok ..with the help of a gaurdrail she jumps off askes if im ok and i was and i asked her the same she was ok a little more scared of a bike now but she says she will go again. now for those of you who have had the pleasure of getting a flat tire on the road you may share the same feelings i have anger, frustration,and just down right mad cuz its sunday i have no trailer so now i have to start the 100 phone calls in the midst of all these feelings Emily has the nerve to ask me "where do you keep the spare on these things" she has alot to learn but i didnt throw her in the middle of the road like i was thinking and smiled and said there is none and you have to push. she said i'll meet you at the gas station get my bike back in the morning with a new tire and will be ready to ride soon. (she may be staying at home)
