I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing lol. All I have laying around is the rear lower spoiler under the swingarm. Free if you want it, but most people don't run one anyway. I know I don't lol

Lol I thought it was the nose. I actually wasn't running mine so I got it, but I appreciate it bawls! I live in south ga, and don't hear too many people call it a "snow shovel" here. Hasn't snowed in quite a few years...

How's your exhaust? If you decide its rebuildable and need something to get you by, I'll send you my Two Brothers Slipons free of charge. They will match your bike since the left one has a dent in the midpipe!
Shoot me your address if interested tlperman@comcast.net

quote: After the unbelievable help from youguys is I still need a guage cluster. I'm pretty sure that it is the whole thing busted, but the screen still works if there's any way to replace the glass over the display and guages. Is the best place a junkyard?? Can't look at ebay on phone...
You can replace the Housing on the guages. I did on mine. Check out babbittsonline.com and use their search .

I watched this similar thing happen at our local track with a kid in a HONDA (Civic). He just held it to the floorboard and never let up.....ran right off the end of the track and into the trees!!
Tracks should really somehow make sure the drivers that are new have some sort of idea where the end of a quarter mile is!!!
Sorry, but let me add, glad you're ok!

Even if its bent , still be happy , as a bent frame is better than a walking frame !!! You said the other guy had neck trauma , any updates on his condition ?
Goodluck with everything.

Talked to his mother sunday, and she acted rude to me (as she did to the people that own the track) so I haven't called them again. But I talked to the track owners yesterday and as far as I know he's stabilized in the hospital with a halo on his head, broken neck (don't know where/how many times) and a broken collar bone. They said he can move his fingers and toes a little, so means he's not paralyzed, which is wonderful! But I want to call his room again, but don't honestly care to talk to his parents again, as they obviously don't appreciate my concern for him.

Us19 dragway in albany ga (south ga). Its a small 1/8mile track that's been here for ages. Track sucks, rough, no traction, etc but I was there just bc new owners and they are doing a lot of races to try and get people to come, and the had a bracket race $500 and heads up race $500. I won the heads up a few weeks ago (when their wasn't a cash prize, but same people are always there. And I REALLY needed some money to catch up on some bills.. And now I am where I am.quite a few grand MORE in the hole...

The heads up race was first,and the punk ass shit talkin little prick that beat me in the finals has a gsxr750framed bike w a 1000 motorm. Weighs 120lbs and I smash him out the hole, but I watched him walk right by me... Got me by .011 he come up to me after I got checked by paramedics, got the bike loaded and says "damn, I feel bad for beating ya now." If I was in my right sense, I'd knocked his punk ass out right there, but wasn't feelin really spunky at the moment... I will be back and I have ONE person I want to beat, and its him. Don't care if I have to borrow a nitrous kit, lol he will lose!
