I can't say I'm really surprised considering all the mods and the way it was used. That bike was seriously underpowered for your kind of riding and this was just a matter of time. Make sure the bike you get next doesn't need hundreds of dollars of modifications to go the way you want it to go.

Damn man. I'm so sorry to hear that. I know how you loved riding her. What ever you get, I'm right there with you bro.

Well that stinks. I guess you'll have to fix up that old 450. Does that mean no DG4 for you this year? I hope not. Good luck with the T-Max.

@yendorshov Thanks man. :) We shall see about the future, it may be time to hang up the aggro riding style and kick back into a more cruiser mode.

Damn bro, was this the aftermath of the sounds you were hearing earlier?

@tankyuong Naa, I'm not much of a VFR fan, although I love the way they sound! I'm leaning towards an old classic style from the 60's

@cashstore1 Yeah, me too. I hope the next one whatever it might be holds up to the abuse. I have thought about it, the parting bits out but I will just sell it out right me thinks...

@LARC0 Woah I have no say now Im doubly impressed if its your main editor :) Have you tried importing any extra video say from your computer into reeleditor? I used to add in my intro and ending using it when I was on the road or didnt have a camera at hand... was pretty good though I could only use the low quality setting. Found any decent tricks for it? Im looking for a way to add a custom image overlay but... no luck yet...

@orketmax It was from racing the machine too hard and crappy timing.

@seekinsoul The 450 is next on the plate, it is a must. As for the DG4 trip... It doesn't know. We shall see how the money situation pans out.

@avi1777 J.Costas Racing Variator, Leo Vince Pipe and stripped some plastics off. The abuse from the night I blew my clutch is what most likely got it.

Well that sucks. So few miles on it too. That just ain't right. Check out the Triumph Street Triple or Ducati Monster. Whichever way you go, go naked unless you really must have a fairing.

Thank you! I races, and rode very hard to make the main bearing a vibration to wreck the drive case. :/ Oooops.

I disagree, mine has a big ass noice there, sounds ugly, I had the polini variator for less than two month and it is already fuck up! How can be? My scoter does’t have to many miles neither

@LARC0 I believe those are naked bikes. Unless the foot pegs are way forward like on cruisers...

@boobtubeviewr It does suck. And my own doings so due to modding and thrashing her all about. The details will be posted in a latter video.

Bummer.What's next on your plan? Do test ride some bikes.Figure out what's your style.You'll get fifty million suggestions on what to buy next.

Too bad about the bike. You may make more money parting it out than putting money into it, and then selling the whole bike. I hope your next bike holds up better.

@dbauernf Neither am I to be honest, but I sure had my share of fun with her, that is for sure. I think I am finished modding... at least for now.

Well when one door closes other doors open. Heck maybe even a couple windows to crawl through. But make sure those windows are for your house. And then close them behind you. Or at least put the screen back up so mosquitoes don't get in. What am I saying? Nvmd.

@Fudmottin Tihs Happens I suppose, could ya blame her. :) I think she wanted out of the relationship due to how hard I was riding her. ;) I like naked bikes, but have been looking at a more classic style, like a Royal Enfield or Triumph with 60's styling....
