Ouch, just came off new bike
Bought a drz400 last Wednesday, still getting used to the knobblys. Just leaving a customers driveway do a right turn and give it a little throttle, bike went for a little slide and I hurt my knee
 I know I should be more careful since it has just been drizzly. Looks like a few scrapes and scratches.        Forks should be fine and bars? Since it was about 5mph or so

Re: Ouch, just came off new bike
It's a DRZ... that isn't a crash... Stop being a poof
 Stick some skate wheel style swingarm and fork sliders on it.

I've had bigger cuts when I've slipped with the nail file!
