    Looking at the picture it is not obvious why the gaurd rails are there,can someone with local knowledge shed any light on this?

    I should post up a picture of my (ex) Shoei after my tumble - there is a lovely scrape where my face went down SHW1, but thanks to the Full Face, I still have my Butt-Ugly Looks....

    I know right? someone will tell me that they have 38 years riding experience and I was going 'fast' and therefor not safe.

    They will also deduce that from the scratch marks, I was riding with my foot at a 45 degree angle instead of the optimum angle and that had I eaten IAMS cat food before riding I wouldn't have crashed

    Nah, they will just see that you have a Honda and come to the same conclusions.

    Lawl - what is with the Honda Hate?

    I mean, I would have bought myself a Hayabusa, but the dealership wouldn't let me on my Learners.....

    we'll you're a fuckwit who shouldn't even be allowed near the raod. If you look there's a yellow sign, these signs announce rail overbridges and rivers and streams etc. If you don't know this you shouldn't be near the roads sonny
