2 Weeks ago on a Thursday morning, I came off my Bandit in the rain. I got up with no injuries. Very Happy I had 3rd party insurance so had to pay myself £500.

Last week on a Thursday morning, I came off my SV650s in the rain. This time I didn't get up so easily. Crying or Very sad Bruised hands and hip. Trousers and helmet wrote off. Thankfully I had full comp so won't have to pay the £2400 repair bill.

Once my hands heal up, hope to get out again. Though will stay out of the rain for awhile. OH YES NO THURSDAY'S EITHER. Laughing

Were the crashes similar? in other words are you braking to hard or maybe riding too fast in the conditions... Or maybe even riding too slow?

(Im not having a dig by the way, just trying to help if its something other than the conditions)

Yeeeeouch doesn't sound good. At least they're two common bikes, so parts are a doddle to get. Could you imagine binning an MV F4 Tamburini or Ducati 916. Shocked

Nothing special, but apparently the acceleration is phenomenal. Razz
