Accident Survey
« on: February 06, 2009, 04:14:45 PM »
During my recent hunt for bike parts I came across an interesting Phenomena (do do    do do   do phenomena  do do do do etc).


After intensive searches (and Im talking Worldwide here) Ive found that trying to get hold of a right hand peg or right hand indicator is almost impossible.
Does this means that accidents are much more likely to damage the right side of the bike leaving the left side unaffected?

If youve had a prang in the past which side did you go down on?
Did you manage both sides?

Are you lucky enough not to have had a prang and are hoarding R/H spares just in case?  :shock:

I'v been down the road twice on the left side of the bike, oh and a bit of a head on also. Left hand spares were easy to get.
All in the space of 18 months while a spotty teenager.

I seem to have stopped falling off now I'm 40, except on a trials bike though. every landing is in the lap of the god's and no two are the same.  [rofl]
