Was riding and the shifter on my rear set assembly fell off.. I installed it about 2 months ago :lol luckily I was just moving from a stop sign.

Make sure you use locktite just as directed!!! My fault for being lazy :whistle:

Older model Goldwing riding two-up hit a parked car in the right lane. The car's driver apparently ran out of gas.

I just realized this was this was the accident that happened in May. Apparently yesterday it was a single bike that simply lost control and hit a median in Lions Bay... I suspect that speed was a factor but nobody has confirmed that as of yet.

Oops, for some reason all the articles are showing different photos.

the moment his sunglasses fell off, his face scared the fck out of me

Sunfighter 07-13-2015 08:12 PM

Jas ... great share man - the rider did a phenomenal job of keeping his composure and literally couldn't have handed the situation any better!

bananana 07-13-2015 08:36 PM

didn't work sorry please delete!

Hopefully nobody will watch this and think, "see... I don't need to wear gear!" That this guy wasn't run over by a vehicle or didn't lose limbs and skin is astonishing...

bananana 07-13-2015 11:52 PM

Hehe

If that Escape wasn't paying much attention or couldn't move over that guy would probably be dead.

Should've added the tagline:

“Faster, Faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.” Behind the scenes at Photohoot#3. Professional rider in closed course. Seemingly public roads were added in post. :hotbaby:

Need help! I have googled for awhile and order two different sets of fairing bolt kits but all do not fit... I am missing some grommet or getting the wrong bolt. Both of my kits ask me to install a M5x16mm. The head is too small and it is too long...
*2009 cbr600rr*

I just want tank side cover bolt! it is missing on both sides.

thanks
