**** dude sorry to hear that.

Did you land crossed up?

Dont write the bike off yet. You'd be surprised how stiff these frames are. These bikes were built in the days of stiff is better design. Being steel it can be bent back if its not too bad.

Who cares about the bike, did you get hurt? Are you ok? The bike can always be replaced/fixed. You cannot. Sorry to hear about that. Give us an update.

yeah i am ok just brused up a little bit i am about to go out get pictures of the bike and ill post them up. I did how ever (i think cause of the tilt bars i made in my machine shop) think they might of saved a heel of a lot of damage. But if your interested in wht it looks like check back here later today.

Ok this is what happened my roomate has a GSXR1000 04' and i have my 94' F so big difference there, weight and everything. Hes always popping wheelies and trying to show off but i am the one always getting the complements on how my bike loooks, anyway i decide to ride a wheelie and ended up getting on the throttle to hard, and popped up way to high i manged to get control of the bike and pop it back on its tires but when i did that the front wheel came down cockeyed and i flipped it *** over end. I tummbled about 4-5 times my shoes came flying off i cracked my helmet, but thank god for the leather jacket or my arm would of been eaten up.

(pictures to come)

It sucks, but our beasts aren't as nimble when it comes to acrobatics. At least you had the proper gear on and it won't be long before you are back in the saddle. Mine went for a pretty good romp and I got it back together after about 6 months of scouring eBay. I had to use a torch to straighten out the tail section, but you'd never know unless you looked under the seat. The frames on these bikes is strong as hell. An aluminum bike would have been trashed. If I saved an 88 I would imagine you could save a 94 and not completely lose your ***. On that same note, you could probably find another for between $2k and $3k.
