Russbiker Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Im gutted, I broke my foot this morning doing some training and its got to be cast up.

Ttaskmaster Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Aww... Game over, man. Game over! What're ya gonna do now... what're ya gonna do??!! I suppose it'd be bad taste to blatt up and down your street with my baffles out? Which foot is it? There must be a way around this... even if it's a Klicktronic!

Russbiker Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 i could actually ride the bike techically but if I bloody had an accident Id surely be in big trouble seeing as I cant operate brakes properly. Must invalidate insurance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I rarely use the back brake on my Drag, TBH. Get a Touring footrest fitted to the right side and rest your cast on that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee@Bikesure Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 i could actually ride the bike techically but if I bloody had an accident Id surely be in big trouble seeing as I cant operate brakes properly. Must invalidate insurance? My mate got pulled over in his van because his back light was out..........he had his foot in a cast and ended up with 6 points because apparently this invalidated his insurance!!

Russbiker Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 yeh thats exactly what I could do without! Imagine being involved in a big smash with lots of people injured and you end up in court? Ill buy a honda with linked brakes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lallasro Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 yeh thats exactly what I could do without! Imagine being involved in a big smash with lots of people injured and you end up in court? Ill buy a honda with linked brakes! the 2013 yamaha cruisers have UBS, 950a,1300a and 1900a. UBS=unified brake system... so, you don`t need get a honda ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russbiker Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 wow did not know that. Is it optional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XJRider93 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Bad situation I can understand... lucky I guess I have my backup bike, and my gas sipper, my ole reliable custom 150cc scooter. Both brakes are on handlebars it's a twist and go cvt transmission gets 90mpg also which is why I ride it still lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lallasro Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 wow did not know that. Is it optional? no, before I buy my bike (2012), I was at an yamaha dealer. he offer me the xvs950a 2013 with 6990 and when I ask him about option to fit an ABS on this bike he said I can`t do this but the bike have UBS. so, I guess is standard.
