The mistake I made that led to the low side was that I was still holding the throttle open, giving it gas, while trying to brake and slow down for the upcoming turn. Gave it too much brake and front end dipped on me.


here are some pictures of it. bike was covered in oil and mud but I cleaned off most of it by now and took off the rear tail.

The chap in the body brace is someone I know, he was supposed to do the RBLR Iron Butt ride with me earlier this year. The brace is the reason he couldn't make it.

This video was shot last weekend, so it's recent stuff!

Michael is a experienced rider, track day instructor and IAM Senior Observer. He's lucky to still be with us, and even luckier to be making the recovery progress he demonstrates in this video. ]]> Dangerous Des http://www.fireblades.org/forums/wrecked-motorcycle-photos-stories/87622-lucky-guy.html candy green 954 build! http://www.fireblades.org/forums/wrecked-motorcycle-photos-stories/87426-candy-green-954-build.html Thu, 19 Aug 2010 06:46:39 GMT just got my bike parts back from paint! fork tubes, clamps, footpegs and misc parts at powder coat now. this build should be good, considering i am purchasing everything new. black anodized bolt kit, cap, pegs, clip ons, stainless black lines, 10 up black sprocket, black ex chain etc. goal: street stunt bike. also attached last build bike. just got my bike parts back from paint!
