 Posted: 20:09 - 02 Jun 2007 Post subject: Flipped a wheely, oww... |
 |
|
Okay so in 1 year of stunt riding I've never properly flipped a wheely, I've stepped off the back many times but never flipped without being in control of the bike.. well today I was doing slow sit down wheelies and I gave it too much clutch, didn't catch it on the brake in time, the exhaust scraped, instead of falling straight off the back the bike pancaked (went sideways) and my left leg caught the spikey motocross peg I put on 30 mins earlier due to breaking the standard one I've scuffed my right elbow and I took quite an impact on my left leg, it hurts a lot but not from the cut, feels boney/muscley pain, will have to see how it goes..
Unfortunately it wasn't caught on camera but I thought I'd share it on here
Remember kids, if you gonna be dumb, you better be tough!! (i'm the first one at least ) ____________________ Current Toys: 06 Yamaha WR250F | Nissan 350Z GT | Tech 4 Homes |

You don't know your limit until you flip it and sometimes you need to find
it a fair few times.

Lol, its gonna happen to me sooner or later.
I had a stand up earlier where something touched something (i was sat trying to work out what, but mebbe chest to tank or screen or summit, was concentrating on the not dying bit) for a second. So they're obviously not low
Then the next one i tried the rear (pillion) footpeg tried to fold in on me, so i landed it just as it clicked in.
Also exacerbated by the wheelies still being launched in second at 30 and ending ~80-100 odd
Binning it is gonna hurt me, mainly in the wallet though. ____________________ China traffic/travel bike vid - When I make a sweeping statement, please add the word 'statistically' in to the sentence before you bitch...

It appears i'm no longer the only who flips wheelies
Only mine didn't hurt quite THAT much.
Nice work dude, chicks dig scars  ____________________ wizzzard wrote: Imagine God just stopping by, tidying your front room up and then quietly letting himself out again. Statisticly more likely to happen than Korn being on here. |

Get well before riding? mate I was back on the bike after 10 mins of laying on the floor, 5 mins sat in the van and a can of relentless
Bike is fine. |
This is why stunters who survive concentrate on car park stuff.
Sure you can die doing a 20-30-40mph wheelie in a carpark, but your more likely to get killed doing a 120mph wheelie down a A road/motorway/outside of a school.
Keep up the good works Sparks!
P.S ALMOST BACK ON BIKE!!!!
