Default Wear your gear!

This is a raminder to all to wear your gear! Jeans don't protect you in a fall. I didn't know which section to put this in, but my friend layed down his 03 959 a couple of weeks ago and I got some pics. He was going about 80mph and jumped off due to inappropriate braking in a corner...

Yeah frame sliders are a good investment!
They saved my bike too, when I layed it down a couple of months ago
