12 o'clock 01 750

here's a few pics of my 01 750 after i 12 o'clocked it. Before and after

DAAAYYYAAAAMMMM!!! I like the first one better. How did you make out? Gear? I thought that when you lower the bike it's harder to bring the front end up. I guess not.... Hope your ok, I'm sure the bike has seen better days.

Actually after a pavement surfing on my knees and elbows----then onto my shoulder and back, a bump in the road popped back over on my feet and walked away. Bruised a little though. Thank the lord for gear. All I can say for the bike, it's now :poo:

approx. how fast were you going? glad to hear your ok!

Is, or should I say was that a FS6 slider? I haev a set I haven't put on and if it is, I will probably get another set instead of putting it on.

I figured i was rolling about 40-50mph (hard to say exactly, my gearing was -1F, +3R) in first when I snapped the throttle and it decide to shoot vertical instantly. You would definitely think the 2 1/4 inch drop would help it not shoot up like that, but with that much gearing, it was useless. Would have hated to see what might have happened at stock height :headscrat . I guess it couldn't have been much worse huh! :clap:

Yes it "was". don't let this discourage you from using them. Any slider wouldn't have helped on a wreck like this. if the bike would have just slid they would have helped, but it went upside down, bounced several times, and ended up facing the opposite direction on the curb.

I know exactly how you feel - flipped my thou in Novemeber Bruised arse was (fortunately) the only damage to me - unless you consider the huge whack my wallet took shorly afterwards to repair it. http://oldskoolsuzuki.info/yabb/attachments/flipper01.jpg http://oldskoolsuzuki.info/yabb/attachments/flipper02.jpg http://oldskoolsuzuki.info/yabb/attachments/flipper03.jpg http://oldskoolsuzuki.info/yabb/attachments/flipper04.jpg http://oldskoolsuzuki.info/yabb/attachments/flipper05.jpg It's alright now though and better than ever. Well worth flipping it for :D To see the repair take a look in the "Bikes" section http://www.gsxr.com/showthread.php?p=53043#post53043post53043

And here's a pic taken about 1 second before it all went horribly wrong :laughingr http://oldskoolsuzuki.info/yabb/attachments/gsxrdead_0001.jpg

NOTE: ALWAYS *****ALWAYS cover the Rear Break. Buy a crf50 and practice covering the rear break you will see that it covers you if you go vert. I learned a TON on my fiddy and covering the break is one. A lot of the stunters have a hand break for the rear so in high chair wheelie you can get it back or they are on the break most of the time to just bounce it off the vert point. Sorry to hear of crash it SUCKS. but ur ok and still alive.

at least you all are both fine and can live to tell about it..........and us others can hopefully learn from it........

at least you all are both fine and can live to tell about it..........and us others can hopefully learn from it........ My thoughts exactly :hmmm: . Mine was obviously beyond repair. Thats okay cause my current one looks even better. :thumbup:

Going down 1 and plus 3 is alot of gearing. Damn. My boys stock '02 750 will do that. You still have the bike? If so, you wanna sell it?
