I lost a fight with a car... hurtin'

[Slyder]

Actually bro I didn't do a wheelie i took off at the set of lights fast yes but only took off in first gear then shifted to second and let off I was going 34-39mph on a 35mph road the stupid lady pulled out in front of me and I tried to stop my back end started to slide so I also hit my front brakes and did an endo and so the guy behind me said I was doing a wheelie which wasn't the case so before you go on what the news says maybe ask the person because the news seems to get things wrong all the time! Don't be a piece of shit person, I almost died because of that idiot that tried to beat the traffic.

Welcome to NESR. Google yourself much lately?

Each post on the forum, on the left, and above the username, has the date the post was created. This thread is actually 4 years, 2 months and change old. And with you being 4 years late, how would anyone here be able to ask what really happened?

ps. ThisBitch, who you referred to as Bro..is pretty hot for a dude

[jasnmar]

Shoulda went with Bra. Works either way

[SRTie4k]

One hell of a way to dig up a dead thread.

[Half Squid]

Your Gear and the frame sliders saved a lot of damage that could have happened!

Glad to hear your not too bad off! Heal up and get back on two wheels!

Best deffence is always leave enough room for idiots around you, you never know what they'll do. Case in point... There is never really any way to know what some people will do. What you experienced is one complete ass that even said he saw you... What a dick..

... I tried to stop my back end started to slide, so I also hit my front brakes...

Wanna hear a little secret?

He did get cited for the U turn on scene.

More luck, the officer rides a zx10 go figure. He helped me out big time in the police report made everything clear how much of an idiot the guy was.

First glad you are OK and cars SUCK to hit....but this may save you a ton with INS seeing as I am sure he will change the story and they will not do a 50/50 split but find him hopefully at fault 100%....

Glad you made it through. And glad this thread reared its head from the four year coma, was worried it wouldn't pull through.

Candidate for oldest thread revival award?!

HAHAHAAHA just saw that it was 08-----------------Geez

[imkindafkedup]

on the plus side the idiot is still paying surcharge points for another 2 years.

[ThisBitch]

Thanks for the wicked cool story, bro.

You never use your front brake, if you do you'll flip the bike over... that's what harley people tell me all the time. btw, I love googling my name too

[jbmass]

.......so before you go on what the news says maybe ask the person because the news seems to get things wrong all the time!

Hence, this is your first post, so obviously we didn't know you at the time to ask what happened. Welcome to the forum, GREAT introduction........

......but hope your ok, accidents suck.

Oreo - you aren't supposed to tell noobs about the NESR patented "double foot down, Fred Flintstone, ohh shit, my back tire is skidding" braking technique until they have at least 100 posts.

[OreoGaborio]

Oh sure, just blurt it out for everyone to read

[jasnmar]

I just gave the name... I didn't explain the actual technique.

[csmutty]

I just use engine braking....

[Evadd]

I just use engine braking....

You can do that?

[ɹǝʍoןandɹǝʍoן]

wow that is an amazing story of survival, one of the best I have heard in a while. glad you are ok, because that is f'ed up. On a similar note, I was in florida in '12 camry rental car last new years (hah!) and some a-hole did the same thing to me but the road was 2 lanes wide on each side, and I was in the middle lane and he started a left u-turn from the outer lane! I was amazed, he stoped directly in front of me, perpendicular to traffic. I swerved right around him into oncoming traffic's lane but everything turned out ok for me. Except for the guy behind me who t-boned the m-f'er. I couldn't believe it. I have pictures somewhere. Your story of tell-tale fate is unbelievable. Good for you, glad you're ok!

He slowed down to about 35

I’m now about 1 1/2 lengths back,

lengths of way, yer bike, a car length, a tractor trailer, anyway you cut it

following WAAAAY too close

35mph= 51ft/sec 150 feet ( half a football field) is recommended safe following distance

I try to but that damned slipper clutch gets in the way.
