WELL IT HAPPENED THIS MORNING....

[O2BESOHUGE]

I CRASHED!! AS I WAS COMIN UP TO A LIGHT IT TURNED GREEN AND AS I BEGAN TO TO GO THROUGH IT A DAMN LADY TRIED TO MAKE THE TURN FIRST COMIN THE OTHER WAY...FAST. SHE FINALLY SAW ME AND SLAMMED ON BRAKES. I LAID THE BIKE OVER AND WENT SLIDING ON THE PAVEMENT. I GOT UP AND THE LADY TOOK OFF!! AFTER I GOT UP AND CHECKED THE BIKE AND MADE SURE IT AND I WAS OK - I WENT LOOKING FOR HER. SHE SPLIT! DAMMIT! NEITHER MY BIKE OR HER CAR TOUCHED, BUT IT WAS HER FAULT BECAUSE I HAD THE RIGHT OF WAY. AT LEAST I COULD HAVE GIVEN HER A FEW CHOICE WORDS!!

ANYONE ON THIS BOARD THAT RIDES A BIKE AND DOESNT HAVE GLOVES BOOTS AND A JACKET WITH PADDING IN IT IS CRAZY!! ALSO ANYONE HERE RIDING WITHOUT FRAME AND BAR SLIDERS IS NUTS! THEY SAVED MY BIKE. THE BIKE SLID ABOUT 25 FEET ON THE GROUND. ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT IT WAS "@#*%&!!!! ...ITS GONNA GET SCRATCHED!!!" LOL!! I HAVE A 2 INCH SCRATCH ON MY THE TAIL AND A HALF WAY GROUND DOWN FRAME SLIDER ON THE RIGHT SIDE. NOTHING ELSE WAS HURT.


I GUESS AFTER I GOT MY BIKES I THOUGHT, "IF I RIDE SAFE, AND BE DEFENSIVE - ILL BE OK".....WRONG!! THE DAMN FOLKS IN CARS ARE IDIOTS!! YOU WILL GO DOWN - ITS JUST A MATTER OF TIME.


I JUST THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE WITH YOU GUYS.....RIDE SAFE AND WATCH OUT FOR THE IDIOTS IN CARS!!

Re: WELL IT HAPPENED THIS MORNING....

Glad to hear you're OK. I've known several people who have died while riding. And many others who have had accidents - both major and minor.
Keep ridin' safe!

Re: WELL IT HAPPENED THIS MORNING....

oh man..I am glad you are ok!! We had a harley years ago and someone opened their damn car door into the road....my husband went right over .....was not cool.........

we sold the bike to build a garage.....much safer that way.

Re: WELL IT HAPPENED THIS MORNING....

Main thing is you are ok, I can't believe that frickin lady didn't at least stop and see if you were ok. Damn,

Thats the exact reason I got rid of my bike years ago. I had cbr 900, which I had perfect control of, hell i've ridden or raced something since I was 5 but it's the other people out there that are going to get you hurt.

And good thing that bike is ok to. lol

Re: WELL IT HAPPENED THIS MORNING....

Why dont you go get it checked out? Maybe get an xray??

[Gooseneck]

Re: WELL IT HAPPENED THIS MORNING....

Does it hurt when you're just sitting there, or only when you move it ?? I've broken my toe before and thats about the only way you can tell if its broken, that and it looks like a black and blue sausage.
