A buddy of mine had bought a Rebel 250 from me a while back. He used it to learn how to ride. Luckily though he had a good head on his shoulders to start small.

His friend Chue Vang, however, wasn't as fortunate. His first bike was a 2007 Cbr600RR. I'm not too clear on the accident details but, Chue Vang was riding at a faster rate or speed than he should of. A buddy of his was in the left lane next to him. He was in the right lane. A sharp left turn came up ahead. He cut left in front of his buddy, little did he know, the road sharply turned right. He lost control and went off the road. His bike flipped a few times and he suffered a broken neck. From what i've heard, he's on life support and that's the only thing keeping him alive. He can't breathe on his own, or speak. He can barely open his eyes. He has a wife and two kids.

He'll be in my prayers tonight.

 

i hope he got insurance for the health and family

becareful out there guys

 

Hope he can pull threw it.

 

there will always be people out there like that no matter how much sense we try to talk into them. i hope he recovers well and is able to learn from this

 

Very unfortunate. Prayers are out to he and his family.

This is a major reason why I ride my CBR at the track only. Sportbikes pump you up, make you feel brave at times and thats how accidents happen.

Ride safe, everyone.

 

that sux

don't ride too fast on public roads don't know! but don't ride too fast on public roads you do know, either.

 

Sucks for buddy. It's too common a story.

BTW, didn't you just get that rebel?

 

he will be in my prayers

 

hope he pulls through. il pray for him.

Shitty.....

The day I find out i'm having a kid is the day i switch to riding a scooter on the street.

If you're gonna ride like a jackass do it on the track where you can see whats coming.

 

amazing, its funny when ever i get on the bike now, and everyone is smashing i look @ the pic of my daughter on the gauge bezel and keep it @ 75 !

my prayers go out for his family .. !

 

quick question:

was he geared up? im not asking to be a dick but rather gauge what kinda damage he took in relation to what he was wearing.

 

This kind of stuff keeps you in line next time you get on your bike. Hope he is able to come through this, and my prayers go out to him and his family.

 

yes i had just got the rebel. i outgrew it quick too. now i have a ninja 500r.

im not sure what kind of gear he was wearing, but he suffered a broken neck. im not sure that any of the normal gear we wear daily could have prevented this. yes speed was a huge factor. it was just too unfortunate. i'll update as soon as anything changes. currently he's still paralyzed from the neck down and machines are keeping him alive.
it just doesnt look good.

 

oh ****....my prayers go out to him. i hope he recovers....

 

Where were they riding at the time of the accident? I know most of the roads around the Fresno area...

I hope the guy can pull-through and learn a lesson about riding. The 600rr is more bike than most people need, and it has to be used responsibly.

 

the only street name i heard was Valentine.

and it saddens me to say, that they made the decision to pull the plug sometime yesterday.
Rest in peace Chue vang.

 

Sorry for his family, but it's people like this that give us a bad name and think it's ok to ride above there skill level and to do it on the streets. God knows i have done it and after i was lucky enough to live through my first crash at 70 into a deer i have learned to respect what i can't control. thoughts go out to his family.

 

RIP

 

Rest in peace

 

Rest in peace. My condolences to his family and friends

Poor children, when sometimes I feel that I'm going above my limits, I don't think of myself, I think of all the pain my loved ones will go through and just back off.

 

RIP, sorry to hear.....Damn this is one of my first times reading the the motorcycle thread and this suxI was looking into getting a byke today as a matter a fact ... i had a friend take me to see a few bykes, but i have a wife and a 2 month old daughter... so this is really making me think.... i understand that his speed was a huge factor bt there are also times when safe riders get smashed into by idiots on the street!!!! x 2 Once again my prayers go to his family tonight

 

rest in peace

i hope that others will be able to learn from this so that at least some good will come of it.

my prayers go out to his family
