When going over the big scary ramp thats taken you 3 visits to pluck up the courage to have a go at, don’t knock the bike into neutral by accident just as you go up the ramp, you do a nose dive, twist the forks, hit you head hard on the deck and nearly brake a couple of ribs as the bars punch you in the stomach!
New lid time me thinks!

take careOctober 12, 2008 at 11:08 am #56753imperialdataKeymasterNasty, but comes with the territory I suppose. Was it your KTM that took a tumble?
October 12, 2008 at 12:01 pm #56754HippoDronesParticipantyeah, was wierd riding it back to the van on full lock and going straight! LOL
Got to me tools and loosened everything off and gave it a waggle then tightened it all back up and lent the bike to the son of the bloke that introduced me to the place to test ride it! (well I wern’t gonna get on it to check if I’d done the forks up properly!)lol
He came back grinning so I think the bikes ok, am gonna check it out later on I think now its clean and on smooth tarmac where you can see wonkeyness better!
I’m bloody stiff today tho, feel hungover and my abs feel like I spent all day in the gym doing sit ups yesterday! (but unfortunately are still all podgy rather than a toned 6 pack!
October 12, 2008 at 10:49 pm #56755RadarModeratorLooks sore bud, hope the KTMs forks are OK and you heal quickly!
October 13, 2008 at 12:19 am #56756HippoDronesParticipantSeems straight enough, was fine for some wheelies on base although I don’t think the official looking person glearing at me was too impressed tho! LOL
