R1 DOWN!!!

[Sparky Bills]

Bloody loose gravel on entry to Shell Mana in Paramata!
Out went the front and down I went.
Bike still rideable, but doesnt look pretty!
Did a nice slide then flipped over, just to make sure both sides were broken!
I AM SO GUTTERED!!!!!!!
Didnt even see it coming!
What more can I say??
Im pretty sore now though. Especially my knee.
Dont think I have any broken bones, but will see in morning.

:confused2
wish they'd finish that fuckin thing soon.... how bad??? when???
need anything, just yell

[John]

jeezus!

thats beyond sad - make sure you check yourself out in the morning!

But at least you didnt seriously injure yourself, and there are abundence of fairings avilable for your bike..

I'm sorry it happened though, and hope you and your bike fix up quick.

Fuck sparky that sucks man, even worse is that really you werent doin nuffin wrong, just a freakish shit of an accident, kinda like trying to put your bike on it's race stand when you have two broken hands and no one to help you and you drop it on it's side in the garage just as well everything was already broken anyway.
Hope the R1 ain't too bad bro, and yourself inculded.

[James Deuce]

Arrrghhh Martin! You poor bastard!

Question: If you were entering the gas staion, and the bike was able to flip onto its other side, how fast were you going?

[Riff Raff]

Not another one! Sorry to hear about that mate. Take care of yourself and give us an update today.

[Sparky Bills]

Feelin pretty damn sore this morning.
My knee is the size of a water melon,
Just had a cry over my bike..
The only thing that actually broke was my right hand peg, from when it flipped over.
Left side all scratched up, right bar bent inc lever.
Tank and rear fairings didnt touch. Helmet had a pretty good knock.
Leathers... Well what can i say.. Those who question them can eat shit!
They saved my limbs for sure.

Had crash bungs on it, looks like they did their job. The left one broke off, and right one bent. But all up they saved my bike nicely.
Will get some pics up soon.
