Dropped it :(

[Fazer Jake]

Nah, he is a riding god - who obviously hasn't fully come to terms with what karma is... hope he doesn't find out anytime soon!

i've had two offs, happens to the best of us, but dropping it on a corner like that to me is something you'd expect from a learner on their CBT.

Remember to plan ahead before a maneuver and you shouldnt have problems.

I had to watch it several times I thought it was a set up, even my gf who does not ride a bike said that's not real !

Unlucky mate, still shit happens least your ankle wasn't crushed! I once forgot my sidestand on the strand, got off the bike to hear crash and was left red faced(under my scarf) to a few onlookers -thankfully it was just a cb500 rat bike!
A little off topic but what make/model is that helmet cam? ...I'm seriously tempted by one before I go back to despatching.
Cheers, BozBoz

I wouldn't drop my bike on purpose!

Probably not ! But you got to admit the f-ing and jeffing make it all look comical, and the way you dropped it look suspicious !  I thought it was a stunt bike crash bars lack of panels !!

I’m glad I not the only one who thought it looked a bit sus - Just convinced my self I was just being an old cynic!

You should always make sure to be in the gear before turning (leaning) the bike. However, it happens to me to not do it in time, or do it in the middle of a corner. Not wise, I know it's wrong and sooner or later such falls happen with that kind of practice, but we all make mistakes. You paid for your experience cheaply, hope you won't doo something like that again. Nice video.

[Fatherbiker]

Hope you and your bike were ok mate? I had a bad off at 0 mph with the bike falling on my right leg badly breaking it and that i admit was completely my own cock up due to being in 2nd gear instead of first and stalling the fookin thing!....By the way, where's your leathers??? Come off at any speed and say hello to you own bones as they come through your skin and jeans!... Ride safe my friend.

[xlewisbdx]

I don't wear leathers unless I am in the bedroom.

Kevlar jeans my friend.

[darrsi]

Too much information me thinks........do you fall out of bed often? 

[Dave48]

Brings a whole new meaning to "Protective RIDING Gear!"

[noggythenog]

I almost came off the other day, heavy(ish) braking in a straight line and either the front locked up or tyre broke away but whatever happened i got a mini tank slapper on the go, instinctively or uncontrollably put my foot down to stabilise and ive parted the sole of my boot from the toe, im sure it'll glue back on!


I wasnt going terribly fast at that point but the boots defo saved me some broken toes at least.

[Fatherbiker]

Glad to hear you have at least got kevlar jeans mate. Leather in the bedroom eh?......Mmmmm difrent thinks i......Might try that...lol

Ayup fella, I just noticed you saying I don't like that ! Before the bike went down, I also notice the rd surface has pot holes ! Maybe sent you off balance ! Get a claim into your local council for any damage.

[darrsi]

@cable tie, the only proof he has is that video, and anyone who watches that video can see that it was basically rider error, there is no claim to be had?

[richfzs]

No, claim, claim, its a win win situation! Except for the rest of the country, who has to pay increased insurance premiums (or council tax, in this case) as a result of foccing ridiculous claims, like this one would be. Stupid suggestion, claiming for that accident, focs sake

I said I don't like because I had the rear wheel off and forgot to pump the rear brake.

Worth putting a claim in???
