Default Crashed Again

Wata knob i am too much leaning, caught some oil went under me. Simple as that done n dusted my fault no-one elses. Think it was because i havent rode in rain for bout a month and forgot how slippy/greasy it would be. Put it down to inexperience.

THE DAMAGE

Mite have to create a dodgy knee gang, tank landed straight on the inside of my knee, bit of swelling and a bruise, not too nice. Rode back to work leg down all the way.

Broken rear brake lever

Snapped front brake lever (again)

Bit of scraping on the lowers

Bust mini indi (think it mite have saved most of the fairing because they stick out bit far lol)

Exhaust scraped at the bottom

Leathers on the inside ripped lol(possibly due to me been a fat b*stard

Bar end scraped

THE GOOD NEWS

I'm feeling better than my first crash even though I have come off worse this time than before.

I had leathers on, even though I was wearing tracky bottoms all weekend VERY LUCKY YOUNG MAN I AM!

unlucky , when you see a car on its roof when it had skidded off on the greasy roads it brings it home how carefull you need to be on 2 wheels .

Hope you & the bike get sorted quickly .

Cheers Steve
