    uhuh...... I believe you dude. YEAH RIGHT! I'm sure that GIXXER gets its beans every weekend mate!

    I almost "became one" with a cow the other day... a whole bunch of these pre-burger shitters standing in my lane ON a bend on SH16 north of Kaukapakapa. I still don't know how the heck I managed to stop in time.

    There I was face to face with a cow only about one foot ahead of me, who didn't seem fazed by my muffled colourful language sounding from my helmet.

    Forum host "BEYOND" .... Good comments about safe riding man. Good stuff dude.

    I almost became one with a truck full of them on SH16 once. I reckon I could jump off of the bike if I was about to nail a cow...but I can't jump tall buildings or even a stock truck. Good to practice braking with a lean on.

    crikey! A mate of mine was once taken out at lights. He jumped upward off the footpegs.... saved his life as the car collected his bike from under him.

    A mate of mine had his front end slide out on him around a left hander with an on coming car. As the bike was going down, he lept from his bike and cleared the car, his bike went straight under the front of the car and he missed it completely but hit the ground hard on the other side of the car and broke a couple of fingers. Lightning fast reaction.
