Everytime I see a Can Am sonic, I'm reminded of the biggest crash I've ever seen.
Anyone remember Brett Skyring at Connondale in early QVMX days ?

Looks about the same condition as mine.  Where did you find it?

yeah, funny story to mine.  I was bidding on a KTM495 on ebay.  Didn't win but was the highest bidder.  Went to look at it, took it for a ride but just couldn't come to grips with it, and mentioned to the seller that I'm probably more a 4 stroke bloke anyway.  He emailed me that night and suggested a Canam Sonic.  I said That's what I want, but finding one is another story.  Next morning on the way to work I picked up the trader magazine because 'you never know'.  Low and behold a canam Sonic in Melb with low hours.  I was that exited I forgot to haggle. I just rang and said sold send it up.
