Needs a couple of small things.

    What Denno doesn't need right now are smartass comments and cheap shots, so probably best to keep them to yourselves for the time being. Regular scheduled ballbusting can resume in a while, but for now just lay off it. :-)
    Wise ass gets as wise ass does sir! No one knows that better than me. Tell Deeno to look on the bright side, he has now completed one of the obligations to getting an expert racing license. Save the X-rays, he'll need them as proof when asks to be bumped up from amateur. Seriously, it's the rule book, look it up.

    Heh heh, he was pissed that they didn't give him the x-rays in jacksonville. He has the ones from up here I believe.

    If you end up having some triples made for the 675, we would be interested in doing a back-to-back test. Maybe at a tonystrackday?

    I think it's time for him to pickup Aflac Personal Accident Indemnity Plan...

    Heal up Denno! Fractured clavicles are no fun.

    If you guys need them, I have a stock set of clip ons and a stock windscreen for the 675 I would be willing to donate to the team if they were damaged in the crash. Let me know

    That is very very kind of you to offer. The windshield is fine and we just bent a woodcraft bar end ($15 from woodcraft) so we're all set for now, but thank-you anyway.

    Re: New race team for '08

    Hey guys thanks for the kind words... It really sucks that it happened as the triumph was such a confidence inspiring bike out there and fast as hell mid-late corner! I'll be ready for pre-season at VIR and can't wait to get back out there!

    The website will be updated with blog, pics and videos as soon as we can, so I'll keep you posted... its very tough and slow typing left handed!

    Thanks again for the offers of help and good wishes!

    I will warn you my posts will be limited for a bit so I hope you all will be able to manage! Haha

    No problem, always willing to help. How bad did the plastics get rashed up, and where will you be workin' on the bike? I had planned on meeting up with Denno to check it out but got busy with work, but now that it most likely will be apart again...

    Wait, that's my bike as well. Damn.

    As much shit as everyone on here gives you, glad to hear you're somewhat alright.

    Did they figure out where the fluids came from, which bike, and why?

    Sucks to have such a prohibitive injury from something that wasn't really under your control...

    Feel better dude.
