getting pulled over with a chick on the back and then the bike falls over(we were both off). the only good thing that came out was that the cop felt so bad he let me go.

 

It was early and I was headed to work, I got a good block or two away and realized i didn't have my phone, so I went back. Normally I park my bike perpendicular to the curb, but I was in a hurry and gonna be right back, so I parked parallel noting the that bike didn't lean much due to some curvature in the street.

I get back down jump on the bike not thinking about how I parked it, and go to get it upright, well, I used a bit too much effort and that plus the angle of the road started me tipping. My foot was in between the bike and the sidewalk, so I didn't have much leverage and had to slowly let it tip over.

That would have been bad enough, but my foot was now caught between the bike and the siewalk, and I didn't have any leverage to get the bike up. So, in front of my apartment building at around 8am I had to get on my hands and knees and wiggle my foot free.

Live and learn right?

 

Haha! That cracks me up, the funny things exhaustion can cause!

Mine was turning to get over a edge of a footpath, didn't applay enough gas, my front wheel got over the footpath my back wheel stayed on the road, i couldn't touch the ground with my legs, the weight of the bike got on the left side and i hit with my rear mirror a car, people from a nearby bars where i was parking where laughing hard. I finally was able to stop the falling bike with my left leg and after i got it upright parked the bike further away becouse of shame, only thanking for my strong legs from training with weights for avoiding even more humiliation.

 

I think I may have made that mistake more than once, which is the funny part.

 

Mine was back in 2004, about a month or two after I got my first bike and my license. I was about 3 or 4 blocks from a red light and saw (of all people) my driving instructor who was a friend of the family so I waved to her. Turned back at the road and traffic was wayyyyy backed up at the light and ran right into the back of an SUV. I was doing about 35-40 and hit the brakes at the very last second causing the front to dive under the bumper and throw me over the handlebars. I hit my head and shoulder on the right upper part of the back of the SUV and it sent me spinning sideways through the air off the side of the road (like those sick football hits where two people hit someone). The guy got out of his truck and thought I was dead, he said all he heard was tires for a split second, then felt the impact and saw a body flying through the air. I was sore but didn't get hurt. Ripped my helmet off and screamed a few not so nice words and slammed it to the ground. lol, the guy was cool though he yelled at some lady for trying to call the cops, my insurance fixed his car and everything turned out fine. Somehow all I did to my bike was scratch my front fender and bend my light fixture a little bit. Still embarrassing though, to be waving to my driving instructor as I get into an accident.

 

my worst is definetely when i was ridin doin about 30-35 and i had 2 bees fly up in my helmet so immediately started tweakin out and ended up tryin to hard to get them out and miss a turn it hurt pretty good

 

Yea there is another thread. Try here

 

yesterday,
I don't know what the heck happened. I got on the ninja 500 and I just knocked it over into my 900RR because I got back off to grab another helmet.
I couldn't get any grip on it cause I was on the wrong side and couldn't fit between the CBR and it on the ground.
It made me feel like an idiot!

 

On saturday my friend was moving and he wanted me to ride his bike to his new house while he drove his car. I was almost at the new house, waiting at a busy intersection. I dont know how the efff I let it happen but I let his clutch out way to fast so the bike jerked and I DROPPED IT!

I felt so bad, my friend trusted me with his bike and I dropped it.

UGH!
