    any chance of slipping on anything wet roads ect,TRY not to use the front brake, and if you have to use it doit very very gently straight line or other wise, for your front wheel will disapear before you can blink..

    Really sorry to hear about your spill...Hope you're ok!

    The good thing about this now, is that you have experienced it, and you know what it feels like: add it to your load of knowledge, it's surprising how much your mind and body will have learnt from the experience.

    Glad you're nearly all OK. You gotta get that head seen to though - some places won't let you in with fancy headware.

    Good to hear that you are ok, had a big 'moment' myself today!Came into this corner on a back gravel road way too hot and had it all crossed up. Was just planning on where I should 'lay it down' when I relised that I had got away with it JUST!Tell ya what, I rolled off the throttle for a few corners after that
