Oh piss!

Mullered my 2tk last night. About half a mile after leaving my house, too much speed (i was feeling relaxed...) into a roundabout on my way out of norwich and ping low sided, what a tit. The bikes had a proper thump when it hit the curb, blasted the starter clutch cover off, snapped the bottom right engine mount too, the frame has an extra curve added, holed the fuel tank as well so i'm lucky it didnt ignite itself, the list goes on...

Worst part of all was the front tyre had torn so pushing it home was absolute bastard.

Its going to take a while to mend.

What a tit. Moral of the story is to remember to let your sticky tyres get sticky before relying on them!

cheers
martin.

Cheers everybone i appreciate it. Full leathers and body armour mean that i've only got a tiny little bump on my bum. Still feel crap about doing such awful things to an 80's gem though. She'll live again though i promise.

Dazz, i think you may well have solved some of my problems i'll send you a pm. Strokes chin.

Take it easy everybody.

Sorry to hear you had an off but your ok and that's the main thing. Hope you get the bike sorted soon, and yes they're heavier when your pushing
