1200 Zero Km/hour Off -- Yes I Managed It

  1. Fashion. Every time. Ask any Ducati jacket wearing rider ;)

  2. Yes I don’t disagree. wearing the right gear is important

    And I always do when out on a ride.

    For example. Was on off road ride for the weekend in the Swartburg Mountains. When I literally hit powder sand doing not more than 80 - 100 km/hr (and not concentrating). Lost the front end and down I went. I had been wearing good off road gear+ boots, and I did not get a scratch.
    All good and back running in 5 mins

    That was on a KTM990, I don’t take the MS offroad

    More importantly how long did you balance for?
     
  4. A 'nipple' making you feel like an 'ass'! I feel a song coming on. Good to hear the bike is fine though
     
  5. I've nearly done the same with jeans or even waterproofs over the boots. Now I always lift my leg a little more than needed and have a more noticeable stretch outwards with my leg when I'm in WPs cos of catching them on the peg as I put my foot down in the past.
    Ankle looks real nasty. Hope you make a quick recovery.
