I guess the odds were right when they say you'll crash in the first six months. I didn't think I was going that fast around a corner but the front tire came off the road mid way through the turn and after rolling/sliding all I'm left with is a bruised knee, shoulder and some broken plastic. Thank god nothing major happened but now I need a shift lever.

I guess the gear helped out, the helmet looks fine but I was getting a new one anyway. No scrapes from the jacket but my knee is killing me. The funny thing was I was going to buy knee guards before I really even went out.

 

glad your ok and made it out with out too much damage

 

woo who wouldnt have been my first words i said if i went down...but its inevitable bum ubm bummmmm glad to hear your okay

 

well atleast you're alright and damage was minor. im have helmet, leather jacket/gloves and im going up to the dealer wednesday to buy icon timax pants just to be safe since this is my first bike.

glad to hear you're alright, get back on the horse and be safe.

 

good thing you were wearing your gear, couldve been alot worse.

now fix that bike and jump back on it!

 

It's kinda good in a way since now I have a real "need" to upgrade some parts. I figure integrated and flushmounts won't tear away and fiberglass is alot easier to repair than plastic

 

i hate levers i came down hard off a 12 and the bike fell and broke my brake lever and now i gotta order one

 

What I really love is how much this one part costs. I guess $60 isn't too bad but since I'm broke this is killing me.

 

just buy some levers off ebay

 

Congrats? Try not to let it happen too often
