Im not trying to be horrible but how stupid are you not to wear gloves and at least a jacket. You wouldnt be hurting now if you had. And i bet you looked so good in just that little bikini top

just take it as a lesson learned.

I've heard too many horror storys to not wear protection on a bike. And i've only got a 50cc scooter!

damaged or not, a tit is a tit eh

and again... wear some fookin gear when out on that bike.

it may only do 30ish but try jumping off and not hurting yourself at even 20mph.

jeans coat and gloves at least.

lol @ all the safety nazis

Thankfully it's still your choice what you wear on a motorcycle (bar a helmet ) so wear what you want love

Just know that if you fall off without a decent jacket and gloves and it will hurt.........lol

Right, off down the pub on my 170+mph sportsbike in shorts and a t-shirt

Fingers crossed no one knocks you off and scares you for life down one side of your body. Good luck. And you can say you being careful all you like but you can account for other driver/riders. Like you say, up to you though init, i just hope the wire brush doesnt hurt to much as they are getting the gravel out of your skin.

That brush hurts like fook mate trust me
(I dont' think they use it any more though)

Plus I have metal in my left leg for life due to some dozey blind tart.

My lid is an Ł500 Arai RX7 Corsair and I own an Alpinestars jacket & gloves, Oxtar TCS sport boots, Knox Contour back protector and my one piece armoured suit.

All that doesn't take away my right to choose what I wear and when based on my own risk assessment and long may that continue

I'm overdue for lobbing myself down the road actually.

My last crash was when I wrote off a parked nova with an XJR1200 and that was 5 years ago

Must try harder

first thing you do when you fall is put your hands out,,wear gloves please, as if you lose your hands ,you cant ride ,period!

as someone in the know, keep a close eye on the breast sore, make sure it dont lump up, see your gp if it does,

take pics of the gravel on the road,and if you have witnesses of the crash,for the police ,would be better, you need to report it to get a crime ref number (or recorded incident number )for your ins claim or any other proceedings brought forward ,why should you pay for a spill on a poorly kept road , which you pay tax to keep good!? see about sueing the local council for the bike damage and injuries sustained, .

shit note of the day,

a guy died after hitting a double decker in edinburgh yesterday,

he wasnt wearing a helmet though!
