Loads man, (all off road though!)
Apart from 1, on my mothers mean machine (yamaha Neos 100!) I was only 16 at the time, and I hit desiel in Focus carpark, hidesided the beast and there we are!
Too many crashes off road.
Funny one springs to mind, just had a rather large crash, take my bike back to the car, battered and bruised and hurting, stick the bike on stand, start adjusting stuff back, and then the wind blew knocked me and the bike over, adding to injury and definatly insult! My mate has pics, and the worse bit is, as I semi undressed through pain as I cashed my trousers kinda fell down so you could see my boxxers.............lovvvvvvvvvverly. And i was stuck as the bike was on top of me :oops:

Last one was on the A369 Exebridge to Wheddon Cross where I burst a dog while chasing my mate on an RD400 with my one-day-old LC.

70ish, pegs nearly down, following his tail light in the dusk, I recall seeing the eyes of the animal glinting in the headlight before a sky, ground, sky, ground, sky, ground, hedge moment.

Totalled the LC, and was covered in blood and entrails from the damn dog. I wish it hadn't died - so I could have kicked the bas-tard to death.

That was in '83 or '84 (over 20 years ago! :shock: ) and despite riding all year round since then I have managed to avoid coming off again.

Actually 'Ago' has seen the Voyager - at Beaulieu Motorcycle World (usually a great day out) a couple of years ago. I was too in awe to take a picture!

Trust you? Yeah about as far as I can throw you and your bike. It is all a bit different -and 10 min would just leave you all confused! :lol:

Welllll in the last 6 years I've:

RS125, dropped it of the sidestand a few times, as you do.

VFR400 NC30, 2 years, 20k miles and only 'accident' was touching the back of someones car at about 1MPH after she did a major emergency stop in the wet, no damage or did I drop the bike.

GSXR750 aka cursed bike.... Probably rode this bike safer than my NC30 but still managed to come off it 3 times,
1) coming out of work coming around a corner to find some lady going way to fast down the rode (cars parked on one side making it one lane), slammed on the brakes, just as I come to a stop I dropped it :( broke front brake lever

2) Riding down some roads I didnt know, it all got a bit fast and close, the guy in front went wide, guy in front of me went wider, so I went wider again into a hedge, I went flying off the bike, broke a fench with my back, proper hardcore. Amazingly zero damage! to me and the bike (but still found the odd leaf months later)

3) The big one. Coming around a corner to find a car in the road, hit it and broke my leg/hand and broke the bike a little too. shit happens.

ZX6R, almost 2 years and no crashes/drops.

Not to bad considering I ride all year around and have done around 50,000miles (although all my accidents have been in the dry :oops: )

SV650S

1. Lowside aproaching a roundabout (diesel me thinks) doing les than 10 mph, no damage due to crash bungs :)

2. Transit van. Idiot white van man (sorry i didn't see your bright yellow, loud V-twin bike in the middle of the day) pulled out in front of me. The bike ended up in the side of the van, i ended up through the windscreen, rolling off the bonnet and fortunetly landed on my feet. Bike was a write off, i was a bit bruised but my leathers saved me from the glass and any major injuries.

R6

3. Lowside coming around a roundabout, bike hit the kurb and managed to bend the frame, needless to say, another write off.


Now i'm onto the gixxer, haven't dropped/crashed it yet :shock: :lol:
