Default Re: Your daftest low speed crash?

One late winters evening i pulled my RS125 into the garage for some petrol. Of course being a two stroke the battery was carp, so having ridden with my lights on there was no juice to crank it up.

Being alone i started paddling 'frog-leg' style and just before it fired, i pulled my hamstring. This meant i couldn't get my foot on the peg and in agony i accidentally pinned the throttle. The bike went cartwheeling through a chainlink fence....and that was the end of RS125 number two.

Fortunately there were only a few motorists around as it was late, but i'm sure BP have the CCTV footage.
