Not sure how I wound up on top of that boulder instead of going around it... but in any case: Gassed it over the boulder I'm standing on, nose dived into some rocks, fliped over the handlebars and back-flopped on a conveniently located slab of granite.
A lot of GS are down . . . GS riders must just be more honest? Or just ride more with people who have cameras ready? :)
The fence really does it job well and avoid me going straight to the other side of the road... Hehe... lucky for me the oncoming car brake just on time.. if not i dont think i will be typing and sharing the pics here...
I was wondering too. Looked awfully strange till I looked at the luggage. All it is is his one luggage piece, jacket, gloves, and lid. Almost looks like somebody swimming through mud. haha. No formal fall pictures for me, but last weekend this was my close call. The sandy soil changed in a few spots, and I can't explain what happened here but the front washed and then it was an ongoing fight to keep the bike upright. The foot saved me, and I managed to scrub enough speed by the time I hit the drainage ditch to stop without putting it on her side.
The bike did a little 210 and ripped the piece of crap OEM pannier off and broke the mounting device. I moved it off the road in case any traffic came by, I injured my lower back and was unable to lift the bike back up Still saving for some Zega's...............
Actually, as I was in full ATGATT mode, I scrubbed the visor off my helmet, shredded a rain suit, and as I found out 250 miles later, broke my collarbone. Oh yea, it also caught on fire. Likely it was aggravated by the fact that with the feet on the hiway pegs, the rear brake wasn't handy. And the V-Rod has two disks up front....
