You dropped it how many time!

Well, first time I've ever tipped over while stopped. My buddy came down and we went for a 3 hour backroad ride with a stop at Bubba's Roadhouse in Sultan for lunch. It's kinda cool, all the parking in front is motorcycle spaces.

Anyway on the way back I wanted to stop to give him directions to a backroad that would take him home. I pulled up a driveway with a slight incline, turned around back down hill and stopped. Evidently I was still a little bit across the hill because in slow motion, the bike started to list to the left and continued down. I couldn't hold it.

Got away with a scrape on the clutch lever and a bent turn signal mount. The signal was spared.

There's a first time for everything I guess.

 

Welcome to the club.

Just remembered my first, leaving this beatiful blondes home that I met the night before, 7am on my 84 Interceptor. ..it was in 86.....all happy, great night...get on my bike, click in gear let the clutch out and WHAM..down I go......disc lock
So thats 3


HELL YEAH---LETS RIDE

 

Haven't dropped mine, but I did drop a friend's BMW R1150R. So far that has been my first and only drop in the 5 1/2 years that I have been riding.

 

Shhhhh....knock on wood bud

HELL YEAH---LETS RIDE

 

Great! Drop a buddy's bike, not your own. Well done!

He insisted that I give it a ride to see how great of a bike it is; coming out of the parking lot I went to turn right and had to stop quickly because of an oncoming car and there was a dip in the asphalt that was low enough for me that I ended up letting the top-heavy part get the best of me and down we went. Scuffed up the boxers head cover, windscreen, and the mirror. Also my ego... ha.

 

To be added to recognize and honour your accomplishments. I am becoming rather proud of you!

 

Executive decision. You get the honours. I will add this. No where in the original post does it say the drop has to be your bike.

 

Agreed. Guys with these talents make me so proud, I get a tear in my eye every time I hear of such feats.

 

Pics or it didn't happen! And by pics, I mean of the Blonde, because I believe you dropped the bike, just want to see pics of the Blonde! :wink:

 

Well that was back when you took pictures, you had to shake them to develop...now to remember her name...it's in there somewhere's .

HELL YEAH---LETS RIDE

 

*sniff* that means alot man...... eaceful:

 

Dirtbikes - More times than I can count (more than Randy ... LOL)

Motorcycles - Never dropped one yet (knock on wood).

 

Awesome Jeff....got mine last week...been raining ever since. Hope you remembered they run small, I usually take a large but got an extra large and it fits perfect


Also comes with an awesome padded helmet bag to boot

HELL YEAH---LETS RIDE

 

You've got time yet to make this fellow flat head proud of you too. You are young yet.

 

I'll respond in the correct thread.

 

Haha. I hope to never drop my motorcycle, but you never know when these things will strike ....

Does a kickstand that sunk into the ground count????

 

Looks like you have the pinlock shield but if it didn't come with the pinlock lens, get one, you wont regret it.

 

Haven't put in in yet...still in the box.
Thanks D

HELL YEAH---LETS RIDE
