    I dropped my bike... Some idiot didnt see me a pulled out of a gas station right in front of me. Locked up the breaks as he almost took the nose off my bike. Then, I got off balance and there she went. Didnt do much though broke my left front blinker and my shifter. Thank god for pucks or I would have a scared mess. But after that it was a PAIN to drive it to my g/f's with a shifter that had about an inch and half snapped off the end. Went to my dealer and the had a replacment blinker , but I have to want a week for the new shifter. Untill then I took hose clamps and tightend a extender peice that I made with scrap metal and it made the 55mile ride from me girls house to mine a lot easier.[

    Did you have your bright on? Did the driver just take off? I wonder if their insurance would cover a non-collision type accident. I would be sooo mad if that was me! I might have even used my "outside voice" at the jerk. This story make me want to put a tire iron mount somewhere on my bike... you know...Road Rash style. j/k

    Yeah he just drove off... My bike in the middle of the rode and traffic backing up, as I gathered my broken stuff off the road. Not a single person got out to help me Lift the bike so it took me a few to get it up... (thats what she said) But i got off easy 38 bucks in parts with just skuffed up passangeer peg. But since then i went and got some all-thred and some skateboard wheels. just in case
