  1. Ouch just watched it. Sucks the trees and brush had to slow you down. Looked kinda similar to mine except I was only a couple of feet off the ground. My rear tire slid out from under me then a baseball head first slide into a curb and then into a ditch at 65 mph. At this rate we are going to have a ohio riders meet and greet recovery ride.

  2. But the japs still insist on making carb bowl screws out of play doh....and their stupid Japanese industrial screws don't dovetail with an American Phillips screwdriver, so step one of any carb job is usually 'strip out screws, remove with dikes or vice grips, replace with stainless socket head cap screws'.

    Damn and I thought I was the only one that had that problem. Glad to see I, am not alone.

  3. I would multi quote but it would be a lot so here I go. The jacket I felt worked pretty good my arm rolled over because my hand for a second was still grabing the grip. I have only had joe rocket jackets and the sleeve armor kinda floats in the sleeve idk if all jackets are like that but both mine was. Max power it was a off ramp that is on my way home I have hit a couple of hundred times. Only difference was I was trying the knee out method and wasn't used to it. I usually take a curve with the crack of my butt on the edge of my seat (helmet and dubbie  and a couple of folk on the epic and dream ride have seen me do it like that). Plus I was in 2nd gear and not 3rd like I normally am. When I turned on the power the tire just broke loose. My own dumb ass fault.

  4. Yeah that cbr is or member dubbie yes sweet as hell. The on ramp picture I zoomed in on my lap top and the scrapes start on the far right. But yes I also will be looking into leaters. As for the details it happened so fast I couldn't tell you how the chain of flips happen only what I was told. I can tell you the thump my helmet took either from the curb or when I flew into the ditch. It felt like my freaking eye balls and brain rattled inside my skull. Never even buzzing around town will I never ride without my lid

  6. Yeah its a new type of asphalt called super pave. They were trying to find a new recipe to mix asphalt at the plant's to help cut cost of the rising diesle fuel. From what I can tell also its a big flop..
