Title: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: Accord Euro-R on September 15, 2009, 03:29:22 PM Hey guys, I know most of us don't scan forums over on Gen7Space, but I came across this and I think we all need to show support for Brian.
Brian's Story (http://www.gen7accord.net/forum/topics/im-paralyzed-and-need-to-sell) I realize Brian got more into motorcycles and hadn't been active as of late, but its still sad to see a fellow member and friend have to go through something like this. Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: slipkord on September 15, 2009, 03:33:46 PM +1 on this. I read it over on gen7. Freaking crazy man. That's why I sold my bike.
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: b_beau_09 on September 15, 2009, 03:48:26 PM damn, he's a great guy too. roomed with him at the mega-meet last year. had a hell of a good time.. this was definitely bad news to hear about..
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: NVA-AV6 on September 15, 2009, 03:52:13 PM I deleted my Gen7 Account, what happened? Can someone do a copy and paste?
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: b_beau_09 on September 15, 2009, 03:58:39 PM Quote Hey ladies and gents. I haven't been around the site much in months because I have been really into motocycles this past year I love to ride and it is one of the greatest releases of stress...asside from sex. :) Well while leaving work on sept 7th, I had a car pull out in front of me. I didn't think much of it...just veered right to avoid them. When I did this though, my back tire hit gravel and sent me up against the curb which began tipping the bike over. Unfortunately for me, there was a tree in my way and I ran into it head first (literally with my head, not the bike) doing about 35mph. The impact shattered my spine and severed my spinal chord. I had a gruesome back surgery last week and the doctors were able to get most of my spine back in tact but the chord itself is beyond repair (at this point.). Luckily, I still have use of my arms,shoulders and parts of my chest but from the stirnum down, I am completely unable to move. I am still sitting in intensive care right now and thankfully, my family brought in this laptop to kill some time. I'm not here to give a sob story...but this is the situation and I have been trying to think of things I will need to do. My bike obviously has to go. It's actually not in bad shape so I should be ok to sell it. My Accord is the other problem though. I absolutelty love my 6-speed but without 2 legs, I will need to buy an automatic that can be modified to fit my needs. My thought so far is to pick up a 2005-2008 TL for the 4 doors and great styling. I am picky as hell though...must be black on black. :) IThe Subaru Legacy is on my mind too b/c I love all wheel drive. Chip in your opinions and ideas. I will most likely be selling quite a few of my parts too from the Accord b/c I need all the $ I can get. Anyway, I will be around. See ya!!

Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: Mr Eazy on September 15, 2009, 04:10:02 PM THIS FUCKING SUCKS!!!!
Those who were at the mega meet know Brian. he had the black 6speed coupe with sick ass retros. He is a good guy. It totally sucks to find out about this. My prayers go out to him for a fast recovery and easy future. Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: v6sicksspeed on September 15, 2009, 04:26:07 PM holy shit - thats intense. almost exactly the same situation happened to a buddy of mine in college who unfortunately will always be paralyzed from the waist down
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: CrackerTeg on September 15, 2009, 05:14:00 PM Wow oh wow. Fucking blows. At least he's staying positive regarding the whole situation (so far as we could tell) and is not letting it hold him down. Props to him for that.
Forgot to mention, the link didn't work for me so I fixed it with the right url. I don't know if anyone else had problems. Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: CrazyCreashunz on September 15, 2009, 05:24:40 PM Wow this made me very sad to read. Brian I wish you a speedy recovery dude. Keep your head up with postive thoughts like I see you been doing....
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: alpha on September 15, 2009, 07:52:18 PM Crazy! Makes me think twice about getting a bike.. Hope he has a fast recovery..

Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: k24low20z on September 15, 2009, 10:13:38 PM when people buy bikes they should also buy a casket because its only a matter of time before something happens, everyone that i know thats owned a bike have all had some type accidents some bigger and worse than others.....i just lost my cousin 2 weeks ago to a motorcycle accident, he was only 24 yeas old. RIP Manuel Alejandro villasana........ he was a member of the Ruff Riders Biker crew..
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: Rich01 on September 15, 2009, 10:20:31 PM Wow, that's so sad to read this story. Hope he keeps on staying strong and positive. My prayers are with you and your family man.
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: ROLO on September 16, 2009, 09:56:58 AM DAM Kid what a bad trip... a dam shame .... now I'm defintely not getting my bike.. I just finished paying off my accord and I was gonna cop a 900
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: clapton924 on September 16, 2009, 12:18:52 PM I have several friends back home with bikes...one of them was in a pretty serious accident a while back. Luckily he has fully recovered....but man...these sport bikes are dangerous. One of my friends just traded in his bike for a faster bike...and I have a friend with a Honda 954 RR 1000cc....he is a wild man and even he calls this bike "stupid fast".
I'm sad to hear this guys story...but I've never been on a bike and never plan to ride one. Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: InFuMoUs on September 16, 2009, 04:51:46 PM Dam I'm sad to hear something like this happen to someone like him. Mad cool dude at the mega meet and it shows he's still got a positive attitude in light of this tragic accident. I pray he has a speedy recovery.

Damn man, this really made me well up. Unfucking believable. Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: jobata23 on September 17, 2009, 01:34:35 AM shit thats crazy, hope he recovers and thats why i dont ride motorcycle.
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: thisaznboi88 on September 17, 2009, 01:43:01 AM I support him. I hope he can walk again 1 day. I also wish he lived in Cali because he car is really nice and it is sad to see such a beautiful car be part out like that.
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: rajin929 on September 17, 2009, 11:43:29 AM very unforunate, but good to hear he is keeping his spirits up and wish him all the best in recovering and selling his accord and bike and getting back on track.
with everything comes a certain level of risk; majority of people I've known that got into accidents it was never speed related but more situations like this where a bit of debris / gravel gets under the tires and you're screwed. Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: Accord Euro-R on September 17, 2009, 03:53:19 PM I sent Brian a PM over on G7A and tried to call/text him but as of yet have not received a response. I would like to go visit him if I can find out where he is being treated and such.
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: Blackhawk on September 17, 2009, 05:37:18 PM I've contemplated on getting a crotch rocket many times but never really came down to dropping the hammer. Now I am glad I never did and never will. Posted in Brian's thread although I don't even lurk G7A. What a positive attitude, that guy's my hero.
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: toinkee69 on September 20, 2009, 11:44:32 AM just saw this, sad story. my prayers and hopes go to brian. ima post on g7a to.
Title: Re: Please show your support for Brian (BlackPearlV6)! Post by: rip_cord on September 23, 2009, 04:09:52 PM Prayers and a speedy recovery.
