From another board I'm on.......
Please heed the warning on the Graphic content!

There was a very bad motorcycle wreck last week in Deer Park on X
St. Two bikes, both Hayabusa's, were going about 120 MPH.

A car turned in front of one of the bikes and the bike struck the
rear quarter panel of the car and the rider flew about 50 yards
after impact. The rider is in the hospital in pretty bad shape after
being taken by Lifeflight. Unfortunately he has no medical
insurance. The other rider was arrested and charged with racing and
both guys were issued a fine of $5,000. Warning: Some of the
pictures are very graphic.

I doubt he was going 120mph since he would have a tad bit more then just roadrash.

BTW this is WHY YOU WEAR GEAR!!!!!!!

dumb fucker
 
at least he had a helmet on and from the looks of it, will live.

thats a lot more than i can say about others.

Well a good bit of states still inforce the helmet law.... Well PA just removed it so now if you're over 21 and have had a motorcycle DL for over 2 years they figure your head is stronger when you hit the ground so no need for a helmet there.

FL I believe has no helmet law other then the fact that you HAVE TO have a viewable helmet attacted to your bike. Doesnt have to be on your head. just has to be viewable by passing cars.
 
Not as much gore as I hoped, but that's a good thing, for the rider.

Damn that car was fubar in the corner.

All I can say is :eek:
That's a good helmet.
 
wow! his back is pretty fucked up though. that suckkkkss. took out a few layers in some areas.

all i gotta say is, what a beautiful bike, so sad. :sad:

:)
 
Some how 120 mph doesn't seem to fit with those injuries if he wasn't wearing leathers.
 
well if he just flew and skidded on the pavement, I guess it could be possible. it's when you hit things that the gore happens

He must have had a lot of open road to slide on.

agree.. negative on the 120mph.. it woulda been way worse. FL does have a no helmet law.. i live here. I've NEVER heard of the "having the helmet attached to the bike". Can u show me where u saw this.. if its possible, im just curious. If its true.. NOBODY abides by it. From my understanding u can rock no helmet as long as u have bodily injury insurace $20,000+, and thats all u need.
 
My uncle goes to FL with his bike 2-3 times a year and I got that info from him he always has his helmet cliped to the side of the bike...
 
when i get my bike, full gear will be worn... pants, jacket, helmet and gloves at least.

Everyone I know that rides said that before they got a bike. Then when they got one, they said they'd have to save up for leathers. Most of them have jackets only & they rarely ever wear them. But at least most of them are smart enough to always wear pants & long sleeves.

Thats pretty sad.... I wear full gear everyday no matter how long or how short of a ride

If you do not have enough money to buy gear then you DO NOT have enough money to buy a bike.

It's kinda like buying a car with no seats or seatbelts sure you can drive it but do you really want to?
 
I agree. If I owned a streetbike, I would have leathers. My brother took a low speed spill because of a stupid lady in a van. Half of the outside of his thigh was roadrash. Tore his jeans right out of the way and put the grinder to his skin.
 
Even if you are going slow, if you lay your bike down and are not wearing leathers, you're fucked. The pavement wil eat through your worthless jeans like they are nothing and guess what's next? your skin.

Be safe guys, I wear leathers, gloves, helmet, and pants EVERY time I ride. From 2 hour road trips to 10 minute grocery runs. Doesn't matter, better safe than .... missing half your leg or something else.
