NICE!!!! you went down like a sack of potato's thrown off the back of a truck. I've done that a thousand times. welcome to the club.

 

Not bad...

I had a small scratch...A little sore on the hip...All the pain is gone in 24 hours though...The bike took on...Bent bars..Scratched mirror and stem/front fender/side cover/plastic side cover and kickstand...I got back to base camp and tightened every nut and bolt on the bike...Wow...Frontend was loose...alot of bolts atleast a 1/4 off...

 

Nice, thanks for posting! Glad I'm not the only one on here with embarrassing crash footage.

 

not for nothing but it didn't look as though you had much gear on. you should invest in some padding. elbow,shin,chest protector and a kidney belt. ya know stuff like that. i even wear some football compression shorts that have the pockets for the thigh and hip pads in them. go over the bars and wack a thigh on a them and it'll hurt for more than a night.

 

Nice I know how ya feel.. Least your ok. Thanks for the post

 

Yeah man!
That made me laugh.
You goofed. LOL

 

I've laid mine over a few times in the month Iand a half 've had it... mostly do to it being my first motorcycle. Very first day on it, 47 miles on the clock, I killed it turning around, snapped my clutch lever. 400 miles later, 15 mph sand-on-conrete turn = scraping up my Tusk D-Flex handguards THE VERY DAY I put them on the bike.



Few times I gignerly set it on its side when I got dug into sand and couldn't push myself back up right, and one time off-camber on some singletrack I lost all momentum, so I just launched myself off the pegs and let it fall over HAHA

I gotta say, its a tough little bike, putting up with a noob-tard like me.

 

Don't feel bad I dropped mine in under an hour of owning it. I wasn't used to the brakes and accidentily locked up the front on dirt around a corner. I blame it on my now sold 85 XR200 the brakes sucked I was so used to just grabbing a hand full. Otherwise I take full responsibility for my mistakes. Fresh knobbies and driveway antics dropped it. Tried to drive over a pile of wet logs droped it and stressed the plastic. Attempt at a wheelie stood it straight up and fell off, bent the bars/shifter, skuffed the F/R/L fender rear blinker and licence plate broke the lic. light twisted the forks in the trees and put a hole in the case with the shifter. Yeah that was a bad day but I feel better knowing that my friends have battle scars on their bikes.

 

Hey F1 do you have those powermadd power x handguards?
