a little while ago my 16 year old sister and her 17 year old boyfriend were in a motorcycle accident. This kid came down from dallas and had some sort of yamaha street bike. He went to visit my sister's boyfriend, and my sister was at his house while he was visiting. My sister's boyfriend and my sister went for a ride on it *w/ no helmets i might add*. So i guess he was trying to be a badass or something, because he downshifted when he was goin 40, and popped a wheelie, and of course lost control of the bike. My sister was one giant scab, and was extremely lucky to be alive, especially since she was wearing only sweat pants and a tank top. No broken bones on either of them somehow. So yea, now i've got a bunch of guys who wanna kick the s*** out of him cuz he deserves it.

They are both very lucky and STUPID!
I'm sorry to say that but it's true. I would never ride a motorbike without a helmet. Its illegal and dangerous. He is also a bigger idiot for popping a wheelie with a passenger!! -------------------- ![]() 98 ST204 ZR - Black Beauty - Roaming the streets of Sydney 73 TA22 LT - Tiffany Blue - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 75 TA22 LT - Snow White - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 77 RA28 LT - Flubber Green - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 94 MX-5 NA8 Clubman - Red Racer - Looking for corners WIP Project: 69 RT40 Corona, 2nd WIP Project: 66 RT40 1600s Corona 86 Corona RT142 - Daily Driver 6GC 4 Life Baby!!! |

what the f*ck is a 17 year old doing with a motorcycle. FFS this is just another example of why they shouldnt let them ride.

She should press charges. He should at least loose his license for a while. Crap like that makes the rest of us good riders look bad. What an idiot.
Hope her recovery goes well. Soaking in a warm tube with epsom salts helps a little, especially after a few days when the scabs get itchy. |

I wouldn't press charges on him because he's a kid that shoulda known better. A night in jail woulda done him some good. But besides that, it's a waste of time, money and a big headache. I hope you're sister recovers 100% and I'm glad nothing worse happened to her. If it was my lil sis, I'll have a very long talk with her boyfriend and let him know what's up. People learn from their mistakes and I hope he does. Downshifting at 40 and popping a wheelie... without a helmet... with a passenger. Wow. I'm very thankful they're both alive. -------------------- ![]() |

man shez lucky. My buddy Spencer rides an old a$$ Honda bike from like 79 and he has another bigger bike from like 87(he likes classic hondas) and when he was headin 2 school about 2 months ago and hit a patch of sand that spilled off a truck and fell and slid out. He was wearin a leather jacket and a helmet and a pair of jeans. He walked away but had a bruise all down his leg, ripped his jeans, scratched his helmet, ripped his gloves, but still managed to walk away relatively unscaved. And did i mention he was duin close to 60mph when he went down? he was duin about 85 KM/H.

Its her fault too, for willing to ride with him. My friend poped a willie on a 1000 CC bike that was another friends and he ended up smahing his head to the ground. It was a quick willie and then upside down he went with his head first. He's still alive but He lost all his memory, he doesn't even know who he is! So far he's begun to gradually recover most of his memories, but it seems like there are a few that he'll never get back.
