Well, binned it tonight!

A 20mph lowside, i mean, the amount of wheelies, stoppies, and other stuff i've done, and i crash coming out of a bloody car park at 20mph.

Cold tyres, too much throttle, just spat me off, only damage to the bike is a bent clutch lever and a snapped indicator! not a mark on it apart from a few scratches on the engine casing.

Got a bruised thigh and a fucked up finger (alpinestars gloves protected all but my little finger) ha.

Allthough an hour later i had learnt to do slowish one handed wheelies kneeling on the seat, will get some pics soon. Laughing

Oh and earlier in the day a mate of mine got knocked off his GSX750, that he had for 5 days!

He's ok too, his bike was worse off than mine. Sad

I went 30mph before going round a roundabout at 20 on my 50cc.....yes 30!!! Laughing

Glad your ok, sods law though! Maybe this is a sign that we should all ride at 140mph popping wheelies, then no one will come off Very Happy

SlimRick - I can cook really well - but it's a useless skill, as I'm not a woman and it's their fucking job!

Gutted for you mate.

Get some of those big R&G's for your Hornet, they saved my casing getting more scratched, I highly reccommend them.

I saw the police around and the bike up against a lamp post near sainsburys, was doing training for my A2 test at the time, hope he is ok Thumbs Up

Cheers fellas, been and got a clutch lever from Blacks today, fitted the indicators, so all i need now is an engine casing and it'll look like new again. Thumbs Up

Just need to soothe my bruised arse now.

I came off at 30 mph on the way back from Donnington Park (BSB). This was trying to go down a slip road onto the M6 which said 20 mph in HUGE letters. I didn't take heed and....i was chucked off into the field! OUCH!

Half an hour before i was gunning it up the A50 Rolling Eyes

Cheers
