guys, be careful..
hello everyone, im feeling pretty bummed out today. im not sure if this is the correct thread for this or not really but oh well. last nite one of my friends was killed on his yamaha r6 that he only got 2 months ago. his poor parents lives are basically over now, they only had one child. he was only 21. passed a car speeding and hit loose gravel and flew into a ditch, dead on impact. i know this is an atv forum but i just want to stress the fact, please be careful people... fast toys can kill if you aren't careful. most people secretly tend to think that it cant or wont happen to them, but believe me it is possible, after all it has to happen to someone. so again guys, please be careful as i wouldnt like anyone to feel like i do right now, and i dont even want to imagine what his girlfriend or his parents feel like...

I am very sorry to hear about your friend as I can relate, I lost my 21 year old friend last August to a ATV accident, you just never know when. My best advice to you is hang around your loved ones and try to remember and share the good times even tho it isn't easy.

What a tragic thing to happen to a family and friends. Life is never the same, and even though a piece of you has gone, be strong in the faith that God is with you and yours. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Let your emotions roam, but search for the spirit of truth, for in doing so the Holy spirit will be there to guide you.

Very sorry to hear about your friend. Godspeed to your friend and his family. Everything is dangerous.....going to work, riding motorcycles, atv's, letting kids play ball, literally everything. I don't own a sport bike now because if it runs 200mph I would be running 201mph.

Sorry to hear about that...It really shakes up those close to them...
My mother came home last saturday night after being the first to witness a bad accident. ..My aunt and cousin were with her as well... My mother came home shook up because she was holding the hand of a man( she did not know) who mas simply sitting with his girlfriend on his bike behind a van at an intersection....while the drunk in that van pulled out in front of an oncomming car that was loaded with 5 young adults.... well the car hit the van in the rear and spun it 360 smacking the bike with 2 impacts as it spun around. The car then burst into flames...
While a teenager who was hanging out the van was saying he was not gonna make it....The motorcyclist is the only one who was unresponsive all others were able to talk and such......
The next morning someone from the hospital noted that someone from that wreck did not make it...
That sucks....my cousin called 911 and was the first to call....It is a tragedy but all our days are numbered...when your card is pulled you check out...
stay strong an we will be praying for you and those close family members...
Don't drink and drive....
