hi folks, so back in Sept 07 my 1st month of riding i lowsided to my left side a day before my b day. 1st crash ever and my ego was hurt. it was slow speed so only friction burned my left knee.

today, 1 week before my b day i lowsided to my right. good thing i had full leathers on. so i only got a small friction burn on my right elbow. frame and axle sliders took 99% of the damage. rider and passenger footpegs got shaved off a little.

so basically i was riding this corner at maybe 50km/hr according to my bud who was following. rear tire slid out and down i went. i remember everything. both my hands were still holding the bars when i was sliding. good thing there weren't any oncoming traffic.

i had just put on bt 021 last week cuz my old rear tire hit a screw. probably not the best tire to crave corners lol. this is my 4th crash (2nd and 3rd time was due to ice and slush, yeah i know lol), learned a good lesson, now i know the limits of my beloved fizz a lot better. so now i can officially say i have dragged a knee. :squid:

edit: oh wavex can i be called mr. crash jr now? :D
