Crashing sucks! only did it once but it was very expensive. Nicely modded bike plus leathers/gloves = 13k down the shitter! Here is the original thread...

But aren't you glad you wear geared up

I remember that crash thread.... for a guy who just destroyed $13K worth of stuff.... you came out looking like Mr. Clean

2 lowsides simply driving outside of my means. No injuries both times, just ruined gear and fairings. Dirt...I like dirt.

never got in an accident with another rider or cager, but in curves twice, first time i was fine, but the bike got mangled, and the second time bike was fine and i got mangled, broken collar bone and road rash. lol funny cuz the first time i wasnt wearing any gear but my helmet and some shorts with a white t, second time i was wearing all my gear. funny how that works out
