Dave, you`re lucky you`re ok. All damage you mention is minor. You`re also lucky if the tank didn`t get any dents. G. |

Its very nice to fix fairings/rebuild engines/make upgrades, etc, IF HAVE TIME FOR THAT!!! I have such problem, that no time enough to do all, what want to do !!! I have fallen down some times with my bikes and its funny, that when i have that "clear mind after crash from deep field", first time is to check, "what happened to MY Paso????"  Anyway human body fixing is much more IMPORTANT, than fix ANY Paso !!!! Near EVERY Paso is better after crash, than "she" was before crash!!!!! ......Surely, IF she was fixed with good taste in good hands.....

Really what sense or thinkings have you feel during exactly the "fly time" untill coming "the touching ground" ?  Fear,happy(euphoria) or you enter to time-machine.......For me at last time my mind switch-off completely before I see my "fly movie"and after the crash when I realize what happen I didn't believe that I lost my personal time.

Sorry to hear of your mishap.... Must be that time of year....I dropped my ST2 at a stop sign due to gravel a week ago. The next day, a guy drove off the road on a Bandit 600 and broke his collar bone, and then the following day, a good friend of ours crashed his bike when making a quick run to the store.....I hope you heal fast and the bike is repaired to as good-as-new in no time. |

Put my scapula through my right lung many years ago. Scapula is your wing bone,opposite the clavicle. My only thought at the time during the accident was Oh Shit! Not again.............Then I watched myself slide endlessly down the side of the road and break both ankles and knees on a telegraph pole that finally sent me spinning back onto the edge of the roadway breaking several ribs just for good measure. No pain at the time,in fact no pain for several days till my lung stopped bleeding allowing them to do the first surgery. The first surgery was to remove the blood from my chest(1800cc) so that they could re-inflate my lung. The first hint of real pain I had during the whole ordeal was the surgeon's knife cutting into my pleural sack to let the blood out. |
