Default Un Function Tuned my bike today

Well to start off the day was great, I just left my buddy’s house helping him get some of the parts for his bike since he had wreck on the way to the Meet we had on Friday at the track. After leaving his house I met up with everyone at the car wash on Rockville pike. As I pull out bike slid right from underneath me all I was thinking during this split second is F^CK My Carbon Fiber front fairings. lol thank God the C/F tank and tail was not on. So my day ended a little short but good news is that I called the company that made my front fairings and they said they could make one in less then 8 weeks so I might just put a band aid on it and call it a day. lol J/k As for some other good news my car will be getting re-tuned with utec and some other goodies tomorrow. Pics should be up later tonight of the damage bike.

Thanks guys. My mom thinks Im crazy she hates bikes. My dad told me one thing that til this day has always been true. "If you ride your going to go down it just a matter of when and where and if you want to get back on." or should I say if you can get back on. Guess Im a lucky one. gone down 2 times in the 9 years I have been riding. Some people think its dumb but there is no feeling like riding.

lol yeah everything is ok thanks guys. I should back rolling on the bike tonight for a Va ride. I pick up some parts just now from a guy and putting it back together right now with the help of my lady. keep you guys updated on the car tomorrow.

I feel ya a lot of people go down once and that’s it for them. my first was pretty wild went down at like 50mph and was road surfing to me which seem like for ever but walk away with a little scratch and bruise thumb. This time I walk away with not a scratch on me or my Tommy Gun helmet. cant even see it on my leathers. The ground was dry it just that when cars pull out of there soap and **** seeps in so its slick. but oh well **** happen.

WTF.NO Turbo I know why called it a quits I don’t blame ya after all that and the car flip/ you def got someone watching over you.

The REAL story:

Chaz rides next to Umzz exiting the car wash. With the rush of adrenaline and him being the only biker in the group of 5-6 Z's, he decides to show everyone what's up and attempts to do some Bike Drifting. He floors it shooting the RPMs within the upper 9k range kicking it into VTEC mode and caused the rear wheel to over-spin sending him into an uncontrollable sideways slide.

i totally had him around that corner too until the vtec kicked in and sent him flying into overdrift...its weird but ever since then its been impossible to drive straight...just ask juan what happened when he drove my car at the fredrick nissan meet!
