Huntr104 Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 For the 2nd time in 14 months I got into a motorcycle accident. Last year screwed up my bow season now this time is going to effect my gun season. I'll be out there though. This won't keep me out of the woods, It'll be hard to sit in a stand or to hike around with my back and knee all messed up, but I'll be out there even if I have to crawl. Guess it's time to sell the bike and find another hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Re: Crashed my motorcycle again Man thats what I would suggest! Sell the bike and find something a little safer. If you didn't get the hint the first time maybe you should take the second! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OJR Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Re: Crashed my motorcycle again On my second ride on a motorcycle, it led to an accident and I spent 13 months in the hospital. 25 operations. You have been very lucky. You had better quit before it kills you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] The first crash was on the highway doing about 70mph when my buddy hit a huge bump in the road he crashed and I tried to avoid him and I flipped too. Slid about 250feet. This past crash I was stunting. I'm definitely giving it up now. I agree with some of you that I should quit while I'm ahead. I've been very lucky and I don't think my body or family could handle another crash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Schmeck Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Re: Crashed my motorcycle again Some people never learn. Have you considered that the next time you may not be able to get on here and tell us the details afterward? Here's wishing you a speedy recovery. While you're convalescing you may want to consider selling your bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bama Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Re: Crashed my motorcycle again Take care of those knees, I see in both your wrecks you injured the knees. You gotta walk on em forever so dont hurt em worse going after a deer. The deer will be there next year but in a few years its going to be hard to get into a stand with knee replacements. Also we have a good name for motorcycles, DONORcycles. Keeps the organ folks and funeral homes in business. Good luck on recovering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Re: Crashed my motorcycle again With all the nuts on the road around here, no way I would ride a bike. Too many people who just do not respect your rights to be on the road. Hope you heal up soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL...I've got a GSXR 1000, and it's my 3rd bike...and yes it's true. There are only 2 types of riders...Ones that been down and ones that're gonna go down. Personally, I've been down twice....BUT I WAS NOT EVADING POLICE!!!! LOL [/ QUOTE ] The last 2 bikes I crashed were Gixxer 1000's. My first one was a 2002 and this last one was a 2003. Who said I was evading police???? I definitely was not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illinoisbowhunter Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 Re: Crashed my motorcycle again That could be pretty dangerous, as accident prone as you are with them I would suggest giving it up. Your life is more important then that hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
