Re: How to drop a bike with style
dont feel to bad gayle
when i first got my licence, i was travelling allong penno road heading out to the old road
and this guy in a ute that was behind a truck in the center lane decided to move to the right lane right on top of me
so i gave him a toot to let him know he was just about to squash me and he quikely darted back to the center lane behind the truck.
then he waited for me to move up and pulled in behind me in the right lane as we slowed down to stop for the red light ahead.
so by this time i was a little pissed cause he just didnt look when he decided to move over on me and decided to give him a mouthfull
so i turned around on the bike and started yelling at him and when i was just about done telling him to pay more attention to the road i
lost my balence and the bike decided to fall over onto the center road devider right in the middle of peek hour traffic.
did i feel like a total tool or what.
i was so embarrased i just picked up my bike which was a 1989 gpx 250r, started it up and took off real fast.

Re: How to drop a bike with style
yeah, happened to me not long ago. stoped out of gear on the driveway, got off and walked away. the dirtiest crunching sound reached my ears
and to think i was worrying about using tapwater insead of de mineralised water to wash off my bike a few hours before
had soem dirty big scratches on the left fairing and split the coolant resoviour in half.
First scratch in a year, glad the handlebars didnt hit the concrete
