Crashed The Hornet.

Man feel sorry for you

hey man, I know EXACTLY how you're feeling right now. Went through the same shit couple weeks ago when I binned my R-6 and went face first into a street sign. Consider yourself lucky that you walked away with just a little bruising. It coulda been ALOT worse.

One thing they teach you in the MSF (Motorcycle Safety Foundation) course here in the 'States is to examine your mood before you go riding. If your overly distracted by something or pissed off then its a good idea to just not ride that day.

Lesson learned I guess.

Cheers.

If you want an example of the WORST case scenario there was a thread all over the US forums several months back about a dude who got into an argument with his girlfriend and went out riding without gear. He lost control at about 90 mph and went through a Taco Bell drive throuhg window and through the store. It ripped off his legs, one of his arms, and the top of his head. His body finally stopped out in the parking lot on the other side of the store. They found one of his feet up in an air conditioning duct in the ceiling. One of the emergency crew took pics and they ended up all over the net. It got pretty famous over here. Its grotesque but its a sobbering reminder of the worst that can happen when you ride angry.

Yeh i did at the time... Was pretty angry with someone. Been a build up over the past few week's I guess. like a time bomb.

Am very lucky to walk away unhurt and no, I didn't want reminders of the damage to my bike so no pic's ( more like I never thought about taking any ). I just want it back all nice and shiney again.

very sobering thing to happen at a time like that and only but me to blame for it, If I get it back and its not written off I will defiantly be doing the rest of the mods I had in mind for it.

Hey bro, Yes i read your thread on it.. And jeez man Im glad you are ok I hope I never experiance the same, MY crash was at alot lower speed than yours but I don't want to imagine the damage that could happen to me If i crashed at that speed, I was lucky there where no cars or anything like that.


WILL DEFIANTLY BE INVESTING IN SOME WELL KNOWN FRAME SLIDERS BEFORE ANY MORE MOD'S
