So this happened....
Hi all,
I was coming home from work fri night, pootling along at 30 when some woman in a passat decided to pull out of a junction right in front of me. Needless to say i went right into her and did this.    That wouldn't be too bad in itself but theres a dent in the frame, so i'm considering a daytona 600. Any opinions? By the way all that happened to me was a broken wrist and a few bruises, all my gears trashed but i guess thats whats its for. Ride safe people, keep those spidey senses turned on! Cheers, Matt. |

Glad to hear you're not too shabby.
Personally, I'd leave the bike as is, more aerodynamic that way... *whistles* |

Really sorry to hear about your accident.
I think Jdubya has a Daytona, he lives in Swanscombe (i think) Andy |

I'm with Baph, I was just thinking it looks fantastic like that. Like it's stooping for prey
I like the Daytonas myself, had a wee go on one a while back and it was great. Superb chassis, perfectly good engine ("Not as good as the japanese" is true, but still ace)... I'd want to upgrade the front end a bit, I think it lets the package down just a little- not that it's bad, but it's not as excellent as the rest of the handling package. Plus, they look like a Pokemon
