Stepped up to a 650r

So it wasn't all on purpose. It started when a mini Cooper ran a red light and hit me. Totaled my ninjette. I'll post pix soon. Oh yeah did I tell u it was a hit and run. Let's just hope I don't come across him again. I mean red light running I can forgive, totaling my bike, I'm a nice guy I can forgive that too I guess. Not even stopping to see if he killed me. That pisses me off. I walked away from the accident with just some torn ligaments in my shoulder and bruised elbow. That's what the ER doc said. I drove myself there. So I start shopping around. I figure since i wanted a little more power from my 250 I would look at a 650. So I walk into the dealership I bought my 250 at and they make me a deal I could not walk away from. 2011 black 650r "used" (i say that with parentheses) because it has 6 miles on it. OTD $6600. I say umm yeah. So now I own a 650r. After insurance paid off my 250. I liked it put 4500 miles on it in the 2 months I had it. I'm sure I will love the 650 a little more :-)

Proud to stand by the fact that I saved my life by laying my bike down and sliding away from it, to avoid a T-Bone collision with a red light runner.
