Streaky Bacon!
Streaky Bacon!
The storm decided she didn't like me this morning, and threw me off on the M25! I'm fine, but the bikes looking sorry
Re: Streaky Bacon!
Crikey mate that's not what you want! Good that you are not mangled. Falling off on a motorway would scare me witless. Where did you end up ??

I just rolled along in the lane lol. I've come out with a bruised elbow, bruised shoulder, and a grazed forearm.lumpyv wrote:Crikey mate that's not what you want! Good that you are not mangled. Falling off on a motorway would scare me witless. Where did you end up ??
Engine died and locked the rear, I pulled the clutch to let the wheel roll and she spat me over the top!MacV2 wrote:That'll buff out...

Re: Streaky Bacon!
glad to hear you are ok mate, rest up for a few days and figure out the best/cheapest way to repair the bike, other than the obvious damage, i suspect you'll have a bent front subframe....
iirc i have one in my shed that's just a tiny bit wonky and the fairings still fit, it's yours if you need it mate, i'll be back in the uk in a couple of weeks. post up a list of parts needed, i'm sure we'll have most of what you need mate

Re: Streaky Bacon!
Glad to hear you're (almost) OK buddy, bike will mend...
Lucky to have an off on the Mway and walk away! Scary.

Twist it 'til it breaks, then back off half a turn....
Re: Streaky Bacon!
Ouch! Hope you're okay and if you need panels fixed or I have spare in stock.
Looks like you'll either need the clutch cover fixing or replacing.

It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Re: Streaky Bacon!
sh1t news on binning it but glad you didn`t come off too badly.
Re: Streaky Bacon!
sh1t glad you are ok, as others say the bike will mend.
is the back tyre still locked even with the clutch in, or was it too late when you pulled in the clutch?
