Sorry to see that bud. I've put a few down low-side on the track but that's about it. I do miss my bad bitches though...been a while since I had a bike. My last ZX10 streetfighter was nearly 200hp at the wheels and all Mad-Maxed the fuck out.
I got rid of her after I had my youngest daughter. Got out on the highway in an open express lane one day and cracked the throttle till I saw ~150ish on the speedo and all of a sudden all I could think was "who's going to raise your daughters if you hit a traffic cone right now?". Sold it that week.
I'll probably have another track bike one day but I think the next two wheeler on the menu is a customized Road Glide Special I can throw the wife on and ride through the Redwoods :)

Semi-related story; in college I did a lot of very wild irresponsible riding in South Florida (all straight with no hills, running from the cops on the turnpike was about straight line speed) with a lot of people as stupid as myself at the time. A friend went down riding a balance point wheelie into the back of a Honda that changed lanes without looking or signaling and rolled inwards towards the Jersey barrier.
I grabbed everything to stop and help him and when I dropped my kickstand I noticed his boot had rolled up against the barrier. Pretty sure I was already in shock at the time because when I picked it up I saw that his foot was still in it and I stared at the boot not knowing what to do. So I walked up and handed it to him and picked him up and carried him out of the road asking if he was ok.
He survived and did some time (outstanding warrants) and wears a prosthesis to this day.
Sorry about the vibe-shifting those things are just so very stuck together in my head that when I saw the bikes and the shoe joke....
ALL GOOD VIBES THO WE OUT HERE LIVING
