Howdy,

29 March 2009 ninja 250R Crashed. Wildlife Saved.

Happended at around 9:30PM about an hour and a half ago.

What more can be said?

Holy shit dude, glad you're okay though besides the knees those look rough go clean 'em up. Looks like your armor did its job...ratty you be careful. So how'd it happen?

From YouTube description;
"Doing 100-90km/h (wtf legal speed!?) a fox ran infront of my bike and stopped in my path, I applied the breaks a little too hard and found myself and my bike sliding accross the ground. Accident happend about an hour ago.
Pictures or footage of the marks left on the road and further updates will be posted as time goes on.

I'm ok.
Damage to the Ninja and replacement gear I'm estimating could go as high as AUD$4000. "

oh ratty I am so sorry. this is a big bummer... Seeing that helmet makes me kinda sick.. glad you were geared up... take care of those knees.. You might want to get them "professionally cleaned" so they don't infect....

WTF dude, never swerve for Greenpeace, children or animals.

Glad you are ok tho! Insurance?

Hope u do have insurance... if u do... are u getting another ninja 250? The reason why I ask is because most people here after a wreck they upgrade for a large type of bike. Get well soon ( Mr E - penis) .

glad to hear you're ok for the most part

Welcome to the Ninja Crashtest Dummy Club ( I'm not laughing at ya cause I know exactly how you feel ). Now that that's out of the way, you don't have to worry about dropping your NEW ninja anymore, WHEW !!! That's a load off.

I got used to riding with one mirror for like 2 months until I got new ones.

Yeah, don't brake for the little stuff. If you can't swerve around it, run over it.

poor ratty has gotten roughed up over the past 8 months or so, his finger was the worst I think.

That sucks man!! glad to see ur cool tho...but I got to ask one question did u record that video like almost naked or something lol

 

[spooph]

Yes sir, glad you're OK, sorry to hear about the bike. Don't let it get you down too bad though, it happens. I know how you feel, now having a blemished bike, but it will all come back together in no time flat...

[virtualmatrix258]

any update on ratty??

He posted yesterday seemed like in good health. And I think we've all come to the agreement that Ratty might be a nudist lol.

 

[zartan]

hey he just came on line. lets all stalk him..

 

[Ratty]

Howdy ;p Bike is in store currently getting an insurance quote done.
I'm still pretty much fine excluding right leg and thats about all the progress made so far.

Not sure if gear will be covered also and haven't photographed scene yet.. Will do eventually.

Recorded the video in underwear because Draggin jeans rubbing on friction burn just wasn't a good feeling

Thanks for all the comments Will update as I hear back from the motorcycle store etc.

 

[virtualmatrix258]

hahaha yeah I just realized lol. Good Eyes Z...even if they are weird lookin' today

 

[zartan]

glad you are up and around. We worry about you..

 

[virtualmatrix258]

Yep, good to hear from you man, hope the right leg heals quick and hope all is well with your bike soon.
