A mate on another forum in England sent me these pics taken when they were out on a ride yesterday,road was dry until they came to this bit which was very wet from run off from a hill,the guy on the red TLS lost the front end then narrowly missed the car..the bike as you can see didnt .Sam was on the black TLR which threw him over the bars and landed upside down :weep:he reckons it just sat there completly upside down,reckons you couldnt have done it if you tried,cracked the frame at headstock,the other bike is a write off,apart from some bumps and bruises and a case of delayed shock for the guy on the red bike they came out ok.very lucky.The old lady in the wagon suffered some bruising caused by her seatbelt.Interesting that he said the cops wouldnt let them have there bikes in case the old lady kicked off afterwards from shock and they were to be evidence.:blink:Sadly the black TLR had just been a feature bike in a pommy bike mag.:Oops:

Nasty, they're certainly lucky to get off that easy!

Geez those guys are very lucky! That black TL looks like it would have been a ripper.
