I was cruising along at 55 mph on a 5 lane road when some jackass used the left hand turn lane as a merging lane and pulled out in front of me. I tried to swerve around him and clipped his bumper. My last thoughts were "this is going to hurt". My bike hit the ground and i went skipping across two lanes and slid into a Big Boy parking lot. After a few minutes the shock wore off and i got up and walked my bike off the road.

The tool who pulled out in front of me was pissed off because of the 2 inch scratch he had on the back corner of his bumper. Whiles he's upset about that, i'm looking at the caved in gas tank, the torn up cowling, my helmet dented in, and my watch which was torn off my arm as i slid.

The real disappointing part of it was i had just made my final payment on the bike that morning.
