looks like a nice price with the aftermarket gear on it and never been dropped.
the shitstorm refers to others that have asked about bikes and there are some very differing views on biking on here.

i HATE to hear stories like this, people in cars are ssooo oblivious to everything going on around them because they figure they are in a car, they're safe. sorry to hear about your accident, and ure right that the performance of a car doesnt compare to the performance of a bike, now i feel like the only time i get a thrill in the TA is when i have the ttops off, even then im wishing i were on a bike.

yea I hate it because now when people ask me what happened to my leg and I tell them tey start right in on the motorcycles are dangerous crap. bull. people who eat, text, talk on the phone, read books or read newspapers instead of driving are the deadly ones and they will probably be first to blame bikes and stupid street stunters that stunt in traffic. don't get me wrong nothing better than a mile long wheelie at 120 mph but right place right time.
