The Making of a Track Bike. :P

with some spare change in the wallet or deposit on a new steed 8)

hopefully the insurer will leave you with the 'wreck & cheque'
1996 Kawasaki ZX-6R Ninja (ZX600P)
Valuation Prices
Price when new (RRP) $12,390
Trade in price guide $3,600 - $4,300
Private price guide $5,200 - $6,100

Main thing is you can get up and go to work.. oh wait.. is that a positive?!
I think you might need a doctors note and week to get over the emotional trauma... nice weather & beers will help

would have to give the cager some credit with his reaction & handling of the matter.. seen too many AT FAULT drivers try to swing a shifty and place false blame, but he copped his mistake on the chin.

Sounds like it could have been a lot worse, well done at minimizing the damage.

Looks like 'new bike' shopping to me!!

Thanks for all the concerns guys. Feeling kinda run down now, and the onset of a headache, some drugs should fix that though ;)

And who took the pic of you getting breath tested? cheeky bugger
Im hoping i get pay out and the wreck, but if i cant get that id be happy with a payout so i can buy a 9 :twisted:
That would be Wade the ninja photo taker! didnt even knew he did it till i saw the pic :D

Glad you walked away in one piece mate, when Victoria called this morning I was in shock as the stack sounded pretty bad
just goes to show you can never scan enough & leave plenty of distance..... now don't do it again!!!!!!
Yes, he was upset about his step, apparantly it not long went on :roll:
Victoria has tendancies of exaggerating things, but i guess she was just in shock herself
Yes sir...wont do it again :oops:

Well it turned out to be that my brother in law who also showed up, knew the towies, and the guy in the van knew one of the fireies. it was a big reunion of sorts :roll:

Yes and i was also concerned about my new brake lines too...hey its the little details that matter sometimes :D

Well to be honest from what my brother in law could make from the conversation the copper and I were having, seems like she was trying to save me from putting my foot in my mouth, but to be honest it didnt sound like that at the time. Anyway, i explained it all properly and all got sorted out

Yep credit is due here, as soon as i stood up he stated that it was his fault, the real test here will be if i get a phone call with the claim number :?

Mate i was thinking about that half way between my mid air manouver and hitting the floor ;)

Plan is, if i get the wreck and payout i track the 6 and buy a 9
otherwise ill get the payout and buy a 9

Or in the odd chance they fix it and i get Ruby back...
