    I crash too much

    I can't understand how people can own these bikes robed in swaves of very expensive and very fragile plastic. my bike only has the front fairing left because it holds the lights/speedometer etc the rest is in bits and pieces in the garage.

    Sure I ride the shady backroads and I'm a lunatic in town but if you don't you might as well be in a car right?

    Will there be a point where I've learnt every silly way of crashing my bike?

    Or will I gain a state of higher conciousness and awareness?

    Or just get too slow and boring to crash?

    until then i'm looking for a streetfighter.

    I just did 2 in 3 days too.

    didn't notice the gravel at an intersection out of the city...accelerated while turning left... had to pop the gear selecter back into place.

    The 4x4 pulled right, thought it was going to turn right...it turned left..indicator flashed once, wet road braked hard, bike threw a fit in the final meters. only a mirror but it was the new one, should have tried to fall to the left so it would take out the cbr mirror instead :P

    Do you not assume that if a 4WD moves in any direction that it has only a 10% chance that it is actually going to go where you expect it will?
