I was cruising at about 30-35 on a side road and some lady pulled out in front of me. I T boned her at full speed (didn't even have time to hit the brakes). The bike went tumbling down the hill and hit another car...completly totaled.

I ended up with some internal bleeding, kindneys leaking urine, a reeeaaaallllly sore back ( 2 months and still in physical therepy) and a pinky that got jammed so bad they thought it was broke. Still no worky for the pinky. All in all 5 full days and nights in the Hospital and still seeing doctors. No work for a minth and I still cant to everything.

I was wearing a Shoei X-11, Joe rocket Alter Ego jacket, draggin jeans, good leather gloves, and Icon motorhead boots. GEAR SAVES. I shouuld be dead or alot worse off. All of it held up perfect. I really didnt slide that much though.

Oh yeah and my left lung was collapsed

 

oohh honda guru, shucks man, glad t hear ur still standing, fuggin A...

as for mine, i was overseas, in the rain, not uncommon to ride in the rain as i was living in se asia, goin t work, at a light, light turns green, i get goin, a moto (just like mine) is right next to me, im riding a yamaha 250, (i cant even say what the bike is called, i will attach a pic) and we get goin, nothin special, i get a bit cocky bc the bike next to me was just like mine, so i started getting somewhat aggressive, we bump,i had some side plastic bags that got into the guy next t me. i lose control, sideways a bit, then WHAM, tankslapper, my first, slaps my nuts and everthing else, i flip over the bike and slide abit on the pavement, i had no gear on at the time, but it didnt matter bc i wasnt that fast anyway, i slide on the road, i was scared that ppl would run me the fug over, but fortunately nothing like that, my bike, nothing too bad, i picked up the pieces and continued on to work, i didnt tell anyone for a while bc my ego was fuggin hurt...costed me about 45 bucks US to fix the bike completely, bc asians kick *** like that..


..second crash, i was still overseas, i was in the middle of a one lane road, im near the yellow line and i am into the oncoming lane traffic a bit (this is VERY common, so no insults plse) and i get goin a bit quckly, and a lady pops out 1500 ft in front of me, i hit the brakes, POWERSLIDE a lil bit b4 i jus barely kiss the scooter that poped out in front o me, that was when i decided to take it EASY and to this day i havent had any mishaps other than the occasional cop tryin to harrass me here stateside, but im all good, man i love my f4i and i never wanna see a crash on her,... and to all the newbies that havent rode much, a smaller bike is better bc the cost after you go down (which you indefinately will) wont cost too much.. i couldnt even imagine getting on a 600 or 1000 as a first bike i mean everyones different and i cant make assumptions, but really, it inevitable, yer gonna crash.. so anyway thas my story, and im stickin to it.....
