My first motorbike related injury

[Viddy]

I find that with my proper riding pants on the nutcrushing effect is greatly reduced - as opposed to jeans or work dress pants. Must be something to do with the padding or webbing that distributes the load, somehow

[scracha]

nah, the guy wasn't even at the crossing, I think she hit the picks as soon as he sort of looked like he might want to use the crossing, I didn't have any trouble stopping in time, just didn't count on the tank in the balls

I do that too...better safe than sorry. If you've ever had a ped-lemming walk out infront of you then you'd know why.

What can I say about crushed nuts....more braking distance, grip the tank with your knees.

Thinking of taking up horse riding? Don't wear boxer shorts

Well, lets just say that I am very glad that modern bikes have flush fitting fuel caps. Unlike the ones on the old TS range that stick up and grab at a particular part of the anatomy that bleeds extensively when cut. Its embarrassing going to the doctor for stitches, but does leave an interesting looking scar.

once I tried to kick start a 250 dirt bike in bare feet, my big toe caught on the footpeg and riped a huge big chunk out.

Poor baby.

Enigma broke both his feet when he got thrown over the bars collecting his feet kicking a big XR.

My eyes are watering just thinking about it. 1st lesson in life is protect the nads

Ouch ouch... I know how you feel... Except I did it to myself when I was test riding an RG150 in Taupo. Did an emergency stop to test the brakes and rammed the family jewels into the tank... I would be surprised if the guy selling it didnt seee me limping away down the drive.... Stupid little japanese designers with little balls designing motorbikes...

Or jumping up kickstarting the CR and slipping off the kickstart only to catch the family jewels between the seat and my butt...
