    Yeah, lead by example. Details & consequences.

    I can't share your pain & humiliation if I'm ignorance nor be reminded of my own.

    I had decided I was out of practice with my clutch up wheelies. I got more and more cocky and then ended up riding upside down I had her up pretty high and had a throttle whoopsie, grabbed the clutch and stamped the rear brake.


    I had forgotten to bleed my rear brake, it didn't work.

    Lots of choice wheelies yesterday, now I'm broken as is the bike. Probably not worth it....would have looked awesome though and no-one else got endangered (I'm not that retarded )

    I don't know many motorcyclists that haven't put themselves off the bike at some stage. Heal up.

    The most annoying part was the countless hours I've put into the bike, should be a fun rebuild though. Never bitter!

    I don't use it much and had just changed the rear rim and caliper, was a pretty big brain fart

    Proud of you man!!!

    At least you crashed doing something fun and stupid at the same time.

    Better than crashing just riding normally!!

    Stunt bike?

    Strretfighter/naked project methinks. I get the wreckage back on tuesday so will go from there.
    I'm glad it was only my doing, not a spastic cage driver.

    Ahhhhhhh, yup, got that T-shirt. Instant memories of the sound of shattering plastic & the sound & smell of alloy going down the road.

    My first thought was "ah, fuck not the pelvis again!" then the bike shot off into the distance, making those horrid noises. Was an interesting morning.

    excellent pun!

    Reckon install a wheelie engine-cut this time. Get a dirtbike for that sort of carry on. I think a lot of kwakas came out standard with them, they even went to the trouble of disguising them as loose wiring we can retrofit this technology
