Thats hot.  Sorry I couldn't resist.  Hope the insurance gods are in your favor. 

sorry dude!

Couldn't save the fireworks until the 4th of July?!?

Seriously glad you're OK... Let us know how it goes with insurance

I've got cat-like speed and reflexes!

No skin damage.   

That....

and fire is motivational.

Sorry about your bike dude.

Damn Rameses. That really sucks. I'm with Dave. Haul it to his place so we can start rebuilding it.

Biggest issue is that you're not hurt.

Let's bring it down here for the teardown/rebuild...single-sided swingarm!!! 

I thought you knew how much of a stickler I am about symmetry.

Yeah, I'm gonna be over where I keep my bike to meet up with the insurance guy later tonight, so I'll snap some better pics while I'm there.

I'll take my camera instead of using my cellphone like I did with the first two.

Yeah, I think that might've been the fastest I've ever moved.  I think Jobu would've been laughing his ass off watching me running around if it weren't for the look of amazement on his face b/c of the flames.   

damn man....

I hope insurance is good to you!

I'm gonna wait to decide on what to do with it until I see what the insurance company wants to do.

And thank you to everyone for the kind words.  I really am lucky that I didn't get burnt when it went up.  I know I had some gas on my hands, I'm not really sure how they didn't catch on fire.

I think the fact that I came away from it unscathed is what's allowed me to keep a good attitude about it.  It'd be a lot harder to shake my head about it and crack jokes if I had been at the hospital last night.

holy crap that's terrible! 
glad you are ok though, and sorry about your bike.

I'm sure plenty of people take issue with Rameses not being hurt....

Man, sorry about your bike.

The flames were about 8 feet tall at the most intense point.

I couldn't really smell anything except the chemical smell of the fire extinguishers.



Give me a couple of minutes and I'll have some more detailed photos up.
