So the wife, buddy, and I went riding up north friday night... while on K5 heading up to Leavenworth around dusk, my bud hit gravel on a curve @ about 40... lost the back end then it caught and slammed him sideways on a semi-barrel roll. He didn't have a helmet on but was able to walk away sore but no damage. Totaled his R1. I'm using this excuse to get him converted into a VRod.
