Well now that it's out of the way you will have many years of safe riding. Seems that ya have to go down once over time to keep you upright. Just glad you are in one piece but sore and sorry about your scoot but maybe it was time for some changes.

Thats sucks and sorry to hear about that! Indeed, welcome to the club. But at 70 mph, it might be enough to be glad you're able to post about it and tell us. Bikes and parts can be replaced. Hope all's well with you and you're back up and riding soon.

Re:finally happened 1 Year ago  
I NEVER swerve to miss anything smaller that a German Shepard. It might bite me in the butt one day, but so far I've been able to run thru relatively small road critters with only one mess to clean up.
Get well soon !! Glad your 'scooter ain't too banged-up.

Re:finally happened 1 Year ago  
Very happy to hear you're ok. The bike can be fixed, but it's a lot harder to fix you.

Did you brave men take care of the fire? I hope everyone there is ok

Scary shit! Glad you're here to post about it.

Cats, squirrels, skunks, anything smaller than a dog, it's feet on the floorboards, ass off the seat, and I'm rolling over the sucker. Sorry about your pet and/or animal rights concerns.

Re:finally happened 1 Year ago  
I'm glad to hear you are OK. It's a good thing these bikes hold up so well. Smoke said the prior owner to his bike laid his down and do did the prior owner of mine. It's amazing how well this bike holds up!

There are two kinds of riders, those who have been down and those who are going down. Welcome to the club and glad you're still around. 70MPH is damn fast to lose control.
