Saw a red 675 at North Sydney 28-02-07 at around 5pm. It was being mounted into a ute, some poor bugger dropped it in the wet!!!
Yes unfortunately that was mine :(. I was heading up Putty Road, early Sunday morning and come off, just before the halfway house.

Managed to ride it back to home. Surprisingly insurance has written it off!! Man it doesn't take much
GOOD NEWS: Picking up the new bike this week after me spill - it's currently in the shop getting the pipes replaced... hoping to be on the road again after the long weekend.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!


FINALLY saw another graphite 675 on the road "as a random encounter". I was heading into the city after a ride with a friend who I haven't seen me FOR AGES called me out of the blue and asked if I still lived at the same place. Said yes and was told he has something to show me. With the eagerness in his voice I suspected he has a bike. Sure enough he did! :) We went for a ride together and after saying bye to him as he was on his way to take the bike back home before he came back to Melbourne to see the Red Hot Chilli Peppers.

Anyway, lane filtered past some cars to pull in behind the first car at some lights at lygon street + alexandra parade just north of the CBD. To my surprise and delight, I saw a graphite 675 with some aftermarket exhaust turning right from lygon into alexandra pde. Fairly sure they saw me as I noticed they were looking at my bike as they turned :D Hope they realised it was another 675 :D

Just wish they gone past me so they could hear the HAWT jardine in action ;) My mate made a comment while we were riding together how the jardine looked and sounded BIKE PORN :D Sounds spot on with that comment :)

Spotted one yesterday, can't recall the time now. In a fair bit of pain atm due to new intense physio (7 days a week, twice daily at least, Fatiguing the target groups of 3 muscles I'm trying to get working again in relation to the nerve damage).

God damn it's hitting me for a 6 (in non slang, it's really really REALLY hurting!!!!!!!!!!! Feels like I'm doing the biggest workouts daily and then some. On 240-360 mg oxycontin, 400mg tramal, 25 mg endep, 3g paracetamol, 150 mg lyrica. Taking 120mg doses of oxycontin atm twice a day and supplementing with more IF it's getting too much for me (the pain of course!) I took 40mg extra an hour or so after my 4pm dose... and.. man.. NEEDED IT

Anyway, where was I?? Oh yeah.. Heading down Swan Street Richmond, Victoria (just near my house). I spotted a hmm, scorched yellow tank 675 with red fairings and tail from the looks of it??? :shock: Took me a couple seconds to actually see ALL of it as it was in traffic and cars were blocking my view! :evil: See, another reason why cars should be banned from the road :twisted: I THINK it was 3ish PM on Friday but I can't be sure. My pain filled (and pain killers) days this week has made everything a blur basically.

I do recall looking at my watch and going "I'll remember the time when I get home and post" Well I finally did get home and post, almost a day and a half later :roll: Just finished another physio session at home (doing 2 days at hospital, the rest are home sessions). It feels AWESOME whilst doing them, "pumping the muscles hard" so to speak but WOAH BABY... The after (and waking up) affects are STRONG. NON STOP TRAIN TO PAINSVILLE! All aboard! Passenger, 1. :roll: :oops: :eek: :thdown :whip :ek :censor

Anyway, that was my spotted! Now seen 2 or 3 on the road randomly and 2 from fellow t675net ppl :) Who are COOOOOOOOOOOOOOL 8) :2tu Just watch out for drakely, I hear his muffler exhaust has a bad seam, the TOR if I remember correctly :wink: ^D |-)


Well enough crazy talk from me, I don't think I'll be posting for a while, at least while this INTENSE physio stuff is going on, it's fucking hammering my system atm. Both mentally and physically, not like you can tell eh? :ko :rg


Hopefully I soon will be :biker And then I can do :-d to all the pain killers and the like.... Until I get wankers cramp from catching up on the lost (insert number greater than 13) months of no right hand. Imagine what wold happen if I didn't have a fantastic girlfriend (we're enganged now btw if I have happened to not mention it, like I can remember at present. I don't even know which hole I should pee out of at present so I sit down when I do "whatever" so I know I won't miss the bowl whatever happens 8) :lol:


REST TIME!!!!!!!!! I NEED IT.. Before one of you guys call the padded cell peeps on me :ko :-d |-) :blahblah :pimp Catch you guys on the flip side and stay shiny side up!

LAUGH! I hear that so often mate, you wouldn't believe. Trust me, once I heal, after I do the CATCH UP on life bit, see friends and just ENJOY LIFE screaming how fekkin happy I am for a few months/years I'll be popping over your way :)

Ok, Im off, need to catch up on a days reading on other forums, hardly spent any time on the net today and won't have time tomorrow or most likely next week due to umm, PHYSIO, PHYSIO, PHYSIO.

Then again, my eyes are playing WONKY on me and I need to squint just to see "normal" here and there. I think it's time to stop and sleep. I'll see how long I last before I actually do whats not silly :D

Thanks for the engagement well wish and stuff.,. ttyl :)

Yesterday or was it the day b4 (28 or 27/4) a SY 675 (stock) cruising along Heidelberg Rd Fairfield towards the city..

Had mixed feelings about the sighting, why. Well Id never seen a SY (only spotted red ones and 1 graphite) in Vic b4 and I had built up this idea I was the only SY in Vic hahah..

On the other hand it was great to see another 675 out there and to know someone else is enjoying the 675 xperience.
