Couple an R1000 with an inexperienced rider that is 19 and "bulletproof".
Well, yesterday while changing my back tire out, my wife come into the garage and told me that "Brandon" had just died taking a corner too fast. He went under a truck...it was instant and at least didnt feel anything.
You've all heard the stories. "Thats alot of bike....Man...but you shure do look cool" We all told him, and a friend still helped him get the bike. I even warned him about corners....what 19 year old listens to advice anyway.
If you are young and thinking about a first bike, please consider getting one that you can learn on instead of something out of your league....leave your ego at home!
