Default be carefull out there

ok guys and girls. i hope you read this and i hope you dont think i am preatching to much.

right the other day at about 430 we had a guy pop into our shop to test ride the GSXR1000K3. he came rode and bought. the problem was his friend who he came with on another GIXXER tho when he pulled out onto the main road with a little too much gusto. end result was a highside due to cold surface cold tyre and too much gas!he is in hospital with a punctured lung and 4 broken ribs so take care and ride safly. warm your tyres and dont give it too much stick till they are warm

thats it really :P

d'oh.

Has to be something that every biker does at some point or another.

Not a mistake to make too often, though, I still have a knackered bike in my garage from when I did it.
