.......where you're getting your crash knobs from , just as long as you have them on your bike!


Yesterday, I have came off at T2 at EC, the bike had minimal damage, due to having crash knobs on.
As you can see from the attached pics the three contact points have saved the day.








as for myself........a bit more repair is needed

Didnt you have like a broken collar bone or something! . .

WTF are you doing documenting on the day after mate ... Get into bed and milk the attention mate


And .. gald ya ok Pete ...... Order for C-Knobs comin soon

milk the attention............hmmmmm you're saying something mate....


getting into bed is painfull however

talked to a couple of mates with experience of similar, they both were saying getting them bones bolted together asap or it will be a long shitty affair, so tomorrow I'll be seeking some kwaks who can do the job

sorry to hear about the off pete, sounds like you took more damage then the bike which sucks to hear.
hope you have a speedy recovery

question is Pete, were they kaneg crash knobs? :

sorry to hear about the off, I hope you heal up well and in lots of time for the christmas track day!

I think the new levers changed the weight distribution on the bike and changed the balance which made you crash...

in all seriousness... ouch pete! Get well soon mate

one, that you guys would appreciate :

as the ambulance was taking off to Blacktown hospital and I looked out of it's window, I saw "bussa" (Chris) going into turn 4 ..... and said to the ambo woman, there is one of my riding mates

Sorry to hear about your off pete, I had a off a couple of weeks ago t3 fortunatley I was okay but the bike is not so good.
Even still the crash knobs saved alot of important bits in the flip and slide.
They can also go along way to protecting standard engine casings therefore no oil on the track and not putting everyone elses day on hold.

Hope you get well soon.

Bummer Pete, although the bike looks OK.
I'm sure you know someone who can hook you up with most of those bits.

Hope your OK, but I gather by being taken away in the ambulance your not ..?

lucky your levers are still good

heal up mate

Oh Pete I am so sorry to hear you came off, that is just aweful, please heal up fast and hope your not in to much pain the kwaks have given you some decent pain killers, sending get better and recover vibes your way mate.

Good luck with healing Pete - hope it's not too bad all up.
The bike's only a suzuki - those bent bits are a good excuse for an upgrade

Sorry to hear about the off mate - heal well .

sorry to hear about the off, hope you heal up quickly, mate

How can you possibly be posting if you're dead
