I know some of you will think this as a none event, but after 18 monts of riding I finally scrapped a foot peg with out really setting out to.
Was going up the rimutakas pass a car and entered a right hander a little quicker than I normally would, didn't freak but decided on a line and put the bike into it. Suddenly there was a strange rumble coming up the right boot -- cool as -- just scrapped the peg. Came out of the corner with the big grin :yes:
Even had to stop at the look out to inspect the shiny scrap marks.
What i learnt:
Just because the bike is leaning over its not going to fall over
Why Mr Honda put extra metel on the end of my foot peg
If I enter a corner a bit quick just sort out where i need to go and put the bike there
