Ba***rd greasy roads
Just had a slow speed slide off my mates bike CB1000. 
Rode it round the block and came up to the end of the road, slowed down then braked gently and next thing the front just stepped out, no protective gear at all,sweat shirt, jeans and no helmet.Stupid d**k that I am.
Light road rash on left forearm and knees and now have a wee baldy bit at the top of my head, also put a hole in my boot.
So watch them roads guys, there slippy as f**k.
Now I have to find bits for the bike to fix it up.
Needs clocks, crashbar (left side),tank repaired and side panel repaired. also need left indicators.
Think thats all so far.
I could not believe how far it slid though,(maybe I was going faster than I thought.) But it didn't feel all that fast. If you know what I mean.
Sorry Fish, mate ,I'll get her fixed, if you get to read this.

Re: Ba***rd greasy roads
That sucks man. At least it wasn't your moto..lol
I've crashed mine into a wall and took the wall out- no way I'd ride without my gloves and hat on anywhere.
Well done for getting away with it..

Ahh. right he said I'm not angry, or mad at you ,but I'll rip the piss out of you for years on this. Fish has the best sense of humour of anyone in the world that I know.
That's a good mate for you.
I'm not too bad just sore and pride at it's lowest it can get but the bike will fix and i'll heal ok.
