Small Off
« on: May 29, 2010, 05:19:29 PM »
 :mad: :mad: After having to call in to work for a few hours this morning, was heading home to get set for a ride out......Rolling up to a set of lights, gentle front braking applied..and slam, on the tarmac,  bike sliding along.

Trying to work out what had gone wrong, to see a some CXXT's flatten plastic bottle....front wheel was on it as I applied the brakes & the then just slipped from underneath.  :mad:

Cock.....that said, the slider took 95% of the damage...with a few scrapes to the mirror, & the pillion seat bodywork.


Whatch out for this shite! Rant over.

Sounds like you were lucky to have been well protected (you and the bike). Glad you are both relatively ok  :icon_thumleft: litter dropping scum need to be taught a lesson though :pottytrain2:
