Dedicated "off" thread

[Dead Eye]

I've dropped my 600 once due to poor balance at the time and a semi-dead leg. Lesson to learn is that its bloody cold in February and I need more appropriate clothing. Not a real "off" though

July 2013. FZS 600
Went out with the infamous Exupnut for a ride. Rain came throwing it down but cleared up but I was still overly concerned with cornering when I shouldn't have been and didn't crank the bike over far enough and ended up target fixating on a raised embankment. Result was a shoulder impact and the bike spinning off down the road. Totalled front end pretty much. This one is a bit of an odd one (as it was so stupid from my perspective) and I could have done one of two things. One, slow down. Painfully obvious. Two, actually steer the bike - don't just stare at the corner  :lol . I still have to get my head around being able to put more faith in the tyres sometimes but my 600 never gave me that much confidence I'm afraid to say. Still, that should hopefully change once its back on the road

Lesson: Ride to your own limits and don't be a stupid c#nt
