Something Useful

Found something useful for MadMax and 2W. Here it is :   To help with those embarrassing moments.    

Have they got 3 sets left  

    

Wouldn't 2W need to change his forum name if he fitted these?

You didn't, did you  ?

Oh gee thanks for that, but I think I'll pass this time. Can't really afford them   

Some years ago , I was in the Ulysses club , & they had a set made up which was presented to anyone who had a " mishap " in front of everyone at the meetings to be kept & returned at the next meeting ..........always a good reason to ride carefully , or keep your mouth shut     

And I can't even claim that a caravan farted and blew Scarlett over
She just needs a pillow though. Training wheels would make corners interesting

On the same lines. I went up to visit Gus on Sunday. Was stopped at a servo having a drink inside and watching all the bikes pull in to re fuel. A Ninja pulled in . Two up. The female on the back hopped off. About 5 seconds later the bike , with rider still onboard, just fell over. Bang ! He was stuck. His mates ran over to lift it off him. He got up a bit sore. When he took his helmet off I then saw that he was a mature gent. Probably late fifties.  My guess is that he got his foot tangled up while trying to find the sidestand.  Ooops    .

Last August, did a U turn in the shed at work at less than walking pace, lost the front wheeel on a very smooth and dusty concrete floor. I tried to hold it all the way down to stop it, ended up taking most of the impact on my RH shoulder,

Result

Trip to hospital by Ambulance
Bruised ball in the shoulder, a couple of days off
Broken RHF indicator
Small scratch on engine cover
Very embarassing footage down loaded from the security CCTV

  

Every time I wash the bike the small scratch pisses me off and reminds me how carefull you need to be

an old SA member I used to work with would have filled his shed with them, every ride seemed to have a mishap
