Re: lost another one
This was my best friend, killed riding his Ducati because some dick ran a stop sign. It's been 2 years and it still hurts like hell to think of him. His girlfriend found out she was pregnant 1 week after his funeral as well, such a sad story.
I wanted to say one of the reasons he was killed was because he had an aftermarket windscreen on his bike, carbon fibre one that I had earlier commented to him it looked rather sharp. Well, when he hit the car, that damn thing severed him in half basically. Guys, becareful what mods you put on your bike to "look" cool. Some of these things can bite you in the *** when you go down. ie.spike bar ends, sharp windscreens, etc, etc.
If I can avoid another brother riders death by this post by making them twice about putting some stupid **** on their bike that could severely injure them or get them killed in a crash then atleast something good can come of this post.
P.S. Sorry to bump and old post, but its just something I needed to say.
