well i cant post in this thread...wait....

 

I've never been down... but then again I've only been riding for 2 years. I've had one close call with a deer, which was my fault. I saw the dam thing with plenty of time to slow down but I didn't, the the deer made a mad rush towards me when I got 20yards towards it, i missed it by about 1ft.

 

I've put my R6 down right after I lube up the chain. It flung out onto the tire and hit the wonderful paint strips making a left out of my neighborhood. Luckily it was only 10mph.

I'm not going to answer the question in regards to my street bob because I don't want to jinx it.....Oh crap guess I answered it....dang no wood.... Ahhh good thing a buddy got me that bell!! So I'm good!

 

Not meaning to jack the thread, but what are you waiting for??

 

Haven't been down on this one, but I was wiped out by a cage about 22 yrs ago, don't want to go threw that again......ever!

 

Not counting dirt bike riding I had never been down ..took a long time off while raising the kids and then started riding again last year . . . .my wife said she'd feel better if I took the MSF course so I did (after riding 1k miles BEFORE taking the course).

First day back I was feeling cocky after beating on their little bikes and laid my bike down on an S curve . . . .so my record is gone.

Hopefully my Low-Rider will never experience that pain.

Take care,
Dave

 

I almost didn't.

 

Not to be impolite, but who is flat out lying? My guess is the ones who define accident as other than dumping the scoot, but what do I know?

 

not me, not yet... but I'm just now coming up on a year (fingers crossed, knock on wood).

 

Ben riding since 1968, all across the country, on and off road, several trackdays as well. Dozens of bikes, several hundred thousand miles. No accidents. Did drop once my KTM950 in the driveway.
