Damn Ryne that's all bad. I'd always want to purchase a bike, but I'm always hearing bad **** about it. Parents telling me it's a death wish to buy one, seeing that it may not be me causing the accident , but some douche bag trying to stuff his last bite of big mac while merging. Anyhow, yeah..sucks that it happened.

Flash 99, I thought it was rumored that the Goats will come back in some near future. I remember reading about it, that GM will stop production momentarily.

Sorry to hear about it. Cars can be replaced, people can't. Stay away from bikes. I learned that the hard way with a trip to the emergency room. Good luck getting a decent settlement from insurance.

Ryne:

When it rains it pours. Sorry to hear about what happened. I just purchased a 2006 Avalanche a little over a month ago. I had it maybe 2 weeks and maybe 1,400 miles when a taxi driver decided to rear end it. It only caused damage to the bumper with a totol of $1,000 in damage. I wont even mention what it did to the taxi.

Glad you and your dad are ok.
