i saw this bike at a local shop the other day. when i saw what was left of it, i was terrified to ask what happened to the rider. the front rim was broken in half. both bars were broken off. one had punctured the gas tank. the forks looked like spaghetti. i was told that the rider had t-boned a car that ran a red light. the m/c rider went through the windsheild head first and ended up in the passenger seat of the car. lucky for him, he was more or less fine. this was all due to the fact that he was wearing gear. helemt, beefy jacket, gloves, pants, and boots. it was said by EMT's that he would have been cut to ribbons and bleed to death if he hadn't worn gear.
just a reminder, dress for the crash, not the ride.
