Looks like conqsoft decided to sell and let someone take his bike for a test ride.

If it was rear ended, how come the rim is intact, tire isn't deflated, etc?

Looks like he got rearended bigtime... I hope the rider is OK.

If it was a truck, the tire could fit under the bumper.

That would have to be quite a truck. Don't bumpers have to be a certain distance off the ground? Or is that an Ohio thing?

In any case, I don't think the bald rear tire helped him any either!!

Dont bikes have to have at least one mirror, or is that just a TN thing...

Point being, alot of people dont follow the rules.

Hi all. First post. My previous bike, a VFR750, was rear ended but not as bad as this one. At first glance the damage to the rear end seemed minor and the tyre was not deflated nor was the rim bent. But the rear subframe was ripped off the frame at the bottom left mounting lug which meant the bike was a write off. And the fairings were smashed when the bike eventually crashed after the wildest, hand-off-the-bars ride I ever took. One thing I miss about that bike was that I could give it full throttle in 2nd. Can't do that for long on the blade.

Cheers
