Posted March 2, 200519 yr Hands up it was all me own fault, looking backwards trying to find a road. Hardly moving, looked forward oops where did that crash barrier come from. No other vehicles about Stops, just, bit of a camber on the road. Rolls into the barrier thick ali two panel type. Bike touches barrier, bike tips over. Ok pick bike up enough to roll away from barrier, yeh right. I wish, lift bike ha ha , bike to low just to pull out without disemboweling it. Two cars go by. Try to lift again, I am no wimp May be I should take my helmet off and show off my long flowing locks... Bugger that. Next car stops. TDAH (Tall dark and Handsome) steps out... He must have been a biker. It took the two of us to shift the begger... Now how can i fit a hydraulic ram. Better still look were I am going I guess.
March 2, 200519 yr Moderator Maybe you should fit a Radar for those barriers that seem to jump right out in front of you? Picking up the bike is good practice......because you just never know!
March 2, 200519 yr Author Maybe you should fit a Radar for those barriers that seem to jump right out in front of you? Hey there's an idea, and a gps at the same time. Now where could I put the scanner.
March 2, 200519 yr Moderator Hey there's an idea, and a gps at the same time. Now where could I put the scanner. With all that bodywork.......you should be able to find somewhere suitable.
March 2, 200519 yr Hands up it was all me own fault, looking backwards trying to find a road. I usually find roads by looking forwards and down slightly Look there's another one!
March 2, 200519 yr You should have stayed home and done girlie stuff like flower arranging and making the tea. N_Tart swears by this regime!
March 3, 200519 yr Admin Well ive never dropped my bike, but apparatntly its easiest from grabbing the bars and turning it up
March 3, 200519 yr You should have stayed home and done girlie stuff like flower arranging and making the tea. N_Tart swears by this regime! Excuse me but a 6am the other morning I was out the front of my house picking Tigger of the floor cos Cliffy couldn't do it And I don't do the flower arranging anymore, I'm a motorcycle helmet and clothing specialist. It is my job to make the tea though
March 3, 200519 yr i'd of had it up in two seconds flat yea i bet, and you aint talking about the bike either are you

It is my job to make the tea though What was Tigger doing on the floor at 6am? And Tomboys always seem to get hooked up with hopeless blokes!
March 4, 200519 yr I told you on dualsport that Tigger got broken the other day..adn for once it wasn't me that broke something Cliffy dropped her in the snow Not to much damage though and besides it's only a Triumph so who cares anyway
March 7, 200519 yr When me Exup got blown over a few weeks ago I couldn't lift it on me own. I had to get the missus out of bed to give me a hand. That's the first time I've ever told her to get her kit on!
March 10, 200519 yr Moderator Not too much damage though and besides it's only a Triumph so who cares anyway Sounds like Triumph has a reputation in it's homeland, much like Hardley's do here.
