Well A slight delay in the SV payoff was caused by my dumb actions over the weekend.
I was in Maryland over the weekend at a friends house when we were heading out early in the morning to get some work done. I was backing out of his yard onto the driveway at an angle which there was a monsterous boat behind me that my buddy is fixing the fiberglass and floor on a customers boat.
I knew I was clear of the boat which I was looking over my right shoulder as I am backing up. Next thing I know I smashed into something! :cursin: I had no clue :wtf: I hit! I am scared to look! Well I get out and see the boat :scratch: ok I am clear of it.... :damn: I hit the trailor up by the hitch :cursin: and this is no little light duty boat trailor this thing is thick heavy duty!
We pulled the bumper out a little just enough for me to be able to put the tail gate down. Then I took the pics...but you can see how far the bumper went in and torqued.
I was going to work on getting the apperence project going on the truck next year, but not this soon...well looks like I have already started. First thing Monday morning I ordered a roll pan by Xenon.
I am going to get the dent out of the bed, then eventually I will get the side skirt kit which will cover that dent in the bed...it will be fixed but just the point being there will be some body filler right there.
I always hated that factory bumper :lol:
I'll have to post more pics once I get the roll pan installed. Then the side skirts, then the front airdam..I need to decide which kit I want to go with...so many options....
Here's the pics of the first accident of my truck..Enjoy...

That sux about the truck. I would not want mine banged up either, But it would be harder for me to make a bike payment on a bike I cant ride. Your in quite a pickle. :scratch:

Good luck with both though.

I stopped at my credit union over the weekend with $750 cash in hand to throw down on the SV loan. I owe $619.00 more on it...this is just killing me! I can do it right now, but I didn't want to drain my checking account too low just incase something happens on the 8 1/2 hour drive home.
I have some money orders comming in, and some electronic transfers still in process. + I have a guy buying the forks and rotors this week cash in hand. I just checked my email and another guy said the front wheel is a sure sale. Which means the only thing I have left is the Gauges and Frame! The bike will be paid off this week! :dthumb:

I just finalized the last major sale thru an email today. The guy buying the forks decided to get the front wheel and front rotors also. I am driving 45 minutes to meet him once I get off work at 3:30...$300 cash in hand.
Gauges, passenger pegs, and frame is all thats left. The loan will be paid this week...this is such a relief! :dthumb:

I am paying off the SV this week, and maybe my laptop loan, I only owe $200 on that, so I will just clear those right now while I have the chance. Then I will save up some cash for a downpayment on the new bike. That means I will be right back in debt when I buy the R6 in December or jan/feb next year..I will shop and find the right deal before I buy. The truck is the only thing I will have debt on for right now which I won't be getting out from that 17k for a long time.

Great news SV. :dthumb:
You still have the frame to sale. That will make a great down payment on the new or used bike + what ever you save.

It is a shame Motorcycle dealers dont do a push it in, pull it in, And we will give you $3000.00 for your trade. You could give them your frame as a down payment. :dthumb:

I thought right before I left the office today..now all I need to sell is the gauges..I check my email one more time, and a guy said he'd buy my gauges...so he paypal'd me the money. Making $550.00 off parts in one day is just so awesome!

I just got back from meeting the guy who bought my forks, front wheel, and front rotors. He gave me cash in hand. He asked me what kind of bike I was looking for and I told him an 04 R6...he said what about a R1..and I asked what year..he said he has a silver 2003 R1 with 2,000 miles on it..he doesn't have time to ride that one..he races his SV too much. I asked him what he'd sell it for he said he's been asking $7,000, he said he'd sell it to me for $6500.00.
Now this is just killing me!!! 2,000 miles! never dropped, wrecked...always garaged! I told him I'm affraid to know the insurance payment, and he said it's not pretty. I have another year before I turn 25, so this is the only thing I am concerned about.

I just got the insurance quotes on the Yami's
2003 R1 = $741.00 a year.
2004 R6 = $500.00 a year.

What should I do?

My SV was $441.00 a year, last year it was $385, and the year before that it was $320.00 They kept raising the premium every year because of all the claims. $500 a year for the R6 doesn't seem all that bad. My friends with this type of bike are paying $900-1200 a year...this doesn't seem all that bad to me.

I don't think a $200 increase is that bad. If you can afford it, go for it. That's a pretty good dealon insurance and for the bike. :2cents:
