Nightmare!
At least you had crash bars
Bet you wish you didnt pull that front brake
Re: Dropped it :( - xlewisbdx - 23-10-12
I certainly do. The bike going into neutral rather than first had a little part in me dropping it.

Re: Dropped it :( - wezdavo - 23-10-12

Re: Dropped it :( - xlewisbdx - 23-10-12

Unlucky buddy. We've all done it and looks like you got away with it. At least you're not too proud to share.
Were you going down from second to first (but got neutral) or up from first to second (and got neutral)?
I like the audio - and the profanity. I was riding round wales over the weekend and having misjudged a corned found myself shouting Araf! Araf! lol

Got knock off my scooter a few years ago and the guy rode off. I now wear that camera everywhere I go and even recently caught me crashing on it at 60mph.
I have a nice little collection of videos on my YouTube channel.

depends how long your legs are or how slippery the ground is or if the road dips down or you put your foot in a pot hole or in a drain or on gravel or a million other things. have you never made a mistake on a bike?
