    The good thing is you are still around. Your FJ vids brought me to your channel. I look at bikes and sometimes think about getting one but while out driving in my car or FJ and see how other people drive today (distracted) I always say, nah. Be safe.

      Thanks for the words, yeah, riding is dangerous as heck but the enjoyment I get out of it outweighs the risks. It's kind of why I was an ex military pilot and war zone contract flyer / soldier. But my riding will be forever enhanced be even more awareness than before even though my past record is clean, speeding ticket free, and accident free until now.

    Jese, it hurts to look at the damage. Ouch, I hate when I hurt myself, at least we can heal, maybe not 100% but near.

      Fill me full of metal and sew me up, I'm ready to heal and get back on the road. One more surgery and I should be good to go! 🙂

      I know, and I kept the bike in new condition too but the Insurance Company took possession of the bike and gave me quite a bit for it. Would have been great to part it out but it was out of my hands. Thanks for the comments.

    Hello: I also have Vmax, can you sell some parts on the 2007 Accident Vmax? Thanks

      The bike was "totaled" by the Insurance Company which means they took possession of it and it went to auction. Sorry, I wish I could have helped.

      @@HaiBui-x5q The seat was from "Corbin", expensive but pretty nice. The bags were from a Company called Fat Max" but they have gone out of business. It was a small Company, the guy actually worked out of his house. Sorry I couldn't have been more help.

    Mr. Tankerson, build another better Vmax....I have 2 Vmax, both 2005. We all enjoy your show.

      Thanks Bud, but I feel the Vmax is cursed for me and I really just want to stay away from them from now on. It sure was a great bike though with a lot of good memories. I'm happy with my Voyager and eventually when my arms and shoulders heal, I'll be back to riding it. Thanks for the comments and a very Happy Holidays to you!
