I high sided going through a turn this morning. The rear gave out hit a patch of sand.
The bike started wobbling, threw me off. I hit the wooden sign with my body and then started tumbling from the road to the driveway while my bike was flipping as well.
As I was tumbling I had my arms out but I kept rolling so I thought I needed to tuck in and did, but man was it a long roll.
After the roll stopped my chest started hurting really bad, and I was struggling to breathe. My friend didn't know what to do, other friend told me to lay down. Guy who pulled over in his car was going to call 911 but I told him no while moaning that I just needed a minute (somehow I knew the pain would stop) friend told him to call. After a minute pain stopped I got up.
Lady said I was lucky, I could have been impaled by the 2x4 when I broke the sign. Homeowners said I did them a favor because they were going to take it down anyways.
My windshield shattered into pieces. From the looks of it I need a new clamp above the battery so the gas tank can connect. Tank is dented need testing for leaks. Whole new front end, lower triple tree. The sides were untouched.
Right now I'm fine, just a twisted ankle. Will feel it tomorrow.
