Philplop Posted November 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 Just to clarify, I wasn't actually thrashing it when I came off, I was in town. I'm not a total plank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philplop Posted November 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 A few people I think. Felt particularly stupid as I'd just filtered to the front of the traffic. Luckily the road was empty (apart from the people behind), or my bike would have probably hit an oncoming car.Wonder if there's any CCTV, might have been quite an impressive spill. Although it probably wasn't, I'll just keep imagining that i went flying 20 feet into the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam K Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 i am a fair weather biker. much rather ride in the nice weather than get cold and wet.when i had my r1 i highsided from an almost standstill on cold tyres. whacked it open in first gear and the rear wheel spun up and the bike went sideways, then gripped, then chucked me off in the opposite direction.that was on a main road and was an ambulance job.

Philplop Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Cheers.I'll have to get some proper pictures taken of it, haven't been on it much actually.Collarbone's started making funny noises. They do look nice, but not as nice as a Triple 1050. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan-GTI Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Sorry to bring up a old thread but do you mind me asking how much this was mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philplop Posted April 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 (edited) Ermmm, £3400 I think.Oh, and my collarbone's been making big 'pop' noises the last few days! Been ok for yonks too!Lesson to be learned: If you ever break your collarbone and they say "we'll just leave it to heal naturally, and if it doesn't heal properly we'll break it again and nail it in place", say "No thanks chap, nail it now please."

tombuttigieg Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 A good mate fell of a monkey bike trying to be clever lol, the doctors tried to put it back it but messed it and now his collarbone pokes out his shoulder. Collarbone don't sound fun to break TBH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
