    Awwww....you're a big boy, you'll survive. Or, you could seek damages. What would it take to heal the pain/suffering? Can't forget about the emotional distress...

    femme,
    you've been doing a lot of distance riding. the R6, CBR, 636, gixxer would be an awesome bike, but not for you. you're probably better with an SV650, or a kawi 650r. the riding position would be much for comfortable. there's a reason you dont hear too many people on the 600's talk about 400+ mile rides in one day.

    Femmekat, If you need help picking up a bike and getting it back to your place, I have a trailer and I'm willing to help.
