Craftsman motorcycle lift for sale. Used once to change a tire. Was able to strap a Yamaha FZ1 to it and roll it around the garage easily. Bike crashed and sold, do not need. $60.00. Will be posting some gear later today, as soon as I get pics up. 2 brand new leather jackets, [air of Icon boots used once, and an Arai Vector helmet, bought this spring, used 2 or three times. (not in crash!)

Sigh. A combination of stupid and lack of trust. I was on my way to have the bike inspected, some asshole was tailgating me on the highway then cut me off and I reacted poorly. I missed my exit, and was getting off at the next one, took a look over my shoulder at the douchebag, then looked back and didn't think I could make the curve. Did a quick assessment, just had to miss a sign and run off into a wide open freshly mowed field. Once I got into it, it turned out it was a little muddy, the brakes locked up quickly on me, got some vibration and she threw me off. I landed hard on my right elbow, shattered the top of my humerus into 4 pieces in the shoulder. The bike wasn't in too bad of shape, dents scratches, and needs a new upper fairing and right rearset, which I picked up. Already soled the bike, as I will not be able to ride for quite a while. I had surgery,with a plate and 7 pins in the shoulder to hold all the pieces together. Proceeds of the bike will cover deductibles and copays for the medical care, and even some lost pay!

Thanks guys. So far the healing is going well. I do not plan to ride again until my daughter is out of school. She is 17, and I am a single dad, so having escaped my first crash alive, I promised her not to put myself in harms way like that again or a while.

Ha! You are a genius! I will engrave Harley Davidson on it, and go sit at one of the dealerships for a little while on Saturday. Bet I can sell it for more than I paid!
