Hi all, name is Greg, im from oak harbor, ohio (between sandusky and toledo, on the lake)just purchased my first honda (first import car ever). A 2004 Honda Accord EX Sedan. 4cyl manual, monroof, side air bags,etc... just dont have leather, navi, and V6. Which i didnt want the V6 b/c i wanted the best gas mileage i could get out of it. i traded in my 2004 Chevy Colorado ZQ8 Sport LS Ext cab for this. Cheaper insurance too!!!!

Here she is...

Here is my old colorado, my 05 SV1000s, which currently has a blown engine, and my all aluminum torsion suspension 5x10 trailer, which i will be buying a class 1 hitch for the accord to pull, so i can haul the bik when i need too!!

Maybe they changed the grills on the sedans, but my 04 coupe has a different grill design.....

How in the world did you blow up the cylinder wall like that?

I hope it didnt lock up and toss you from the bike!

cylinder was loose for a long time and finally went at a high RPM shift.. happened going 130mph.. so im SUPER glad it didnt lock up... i was passing a few semis.. so i wouldnt be alive to type right now if i went down... lol... the bike shiut off right away and i grabbed the clutch. THANK GOD it went into neutral so i could slow down....
