Glad that you are safe, and your bike too.

Lesson to be learnt: do not overtake twice.

thanks guys. actually my joy of a scratch free crash was short lived.

theres a small scratch on the front fairing. damn!

I have a big scar there and I havent got it changed or covered.... Its there to stay to remind me that anybody can crash!

**Technocrat** · 02-13-2009, 05:55 PM

Wishing you a speedy recovery, Sai!!

Because of some idiots on the road we have to pay the price.Even i was involved in a small accident last week, where a wayward passion guy trying to cross the road not even waiting for the oncoming traffic smashed into my bike.I was at 20km/hr then.My bike's indicator pivot borne the impact and has shifted to the inside and nothing much happened to me or the bike.After a word-fest when we(my brother was pillion) saw the passion's fuel tank was spilling petrol, we fled from the scene!!

**terrordrone** · 02-13-2009, 08:50 PM

My Fi mis-fired many times.. switched off twice while riding .. fuel tank was more than half full..
(850 kms done.. )
Im taking it to the service center tomorrow.. is there anything in specific that i should get checked ?

sorry to break the thread.. wish you a speedy recovery

**Racing Hart** · 02-13-2009, 09:58 PM

Damn we ppl pay the price for no mistake of ours...

good nothing serious happened to you...recover soon sai...take care...

a pulsar 180 slams into my slowing down bike at a signal. the guy is with a lady pillion and i remember having overtaken him twice before. probably was pissed. worst part was, he hit me and then managed to scoot away before the police or the public came. I was wearing a helmet as always but something left a a long nasty gash on my left hand and a few scratches all over. the public gave me a helping hand, somebody brought me a bottle of water and the police praised me for wearing a helmet.

now to the bike. Broken front left indicator, broken left mirror and thats it.

thank god! not even a single scratch.

btw, the 'hit and run' took place on cathedral road, near poes garden. the place is known for high police presence. sad that neither me nor the police could find that b*st*rd.

cheers,
sai

hard luck dude.. hope your ok.. even my bike's got a couple of scrathes on the fairing..

**onlinesatish** · 02-14-2009, 03:49 AM

I still have the part which broke when my friend(suryar1) had a big crash on my bike

luckily nothing major happened to my bike....but he had to be hospitalised for a week and had 3 operations!

now he is fine back to raping his p150 and at times my RTR too!

**Puneet1** · 02-14-2009, 04:12 PM

i changed my suspension to softest setting last week ,very comfortable it has become .Now bumps are much more easy . what setting do u all use ?

Earlier i used to be on hardest to maximise high speed stability but now since im riding at 45-55 only i changed it to softest .
