pointy crashes thread
 

just to separate the eyball thread a little,, plaent of posts in this one :) , would do one for curvys, but... curvy owners dont seem to fall out with their bikes as much at the minute

Cheeky sod, all the curvy smugness is going to be wiped off sooner or later... your off to do two track days soon arnt you... heh.:smt077

wish my bike was in a fit state to join in :(

Re: pointy crashes thread
 

Track days are where you're supposed to crash. ;)

Curvy's are too rare and cool to be crashed now. Pointies are everywhere, being binned left right and centre.

Keep up the good work RavingDavis. :smt023

Mike: See you at Mallory. :D

Re: pointy crashes thread
 

Thing is you can tell when a pointy model's been crashed...

If anything a good pavement interface improves the looks of the curvey...

Re: pointy crashes thread
 

Cheeky! Curvy's are much better looking. Fact. They crash much less. Fact.

I crashed my curvy far more than I've crashed my pointy * touch wood*

Got very lucky there mate, you are wearing jeans! could have been really really bad. Bike doesn't look too bad, but you cant see very well
