[CyberDruidtheModGod]

Please don't crash your Buell like this

[xXBuellXB12RXx]

@CyberDruidtheModGod the CR as well as myself will try our hardest to remain in one piece

[xXBuellXB12RXx]

thats how i went down on my buell but i wasnt showing off in the process, just solo on a spirited ride on a hilly back road doing about 70 while accelerating and came over a hill and started to wabble and got worse instantly and threw me off the right side i slid about 300 feet and the bike went about another 530 feet, bike was still ridable and road to hospital i suffered no broken bones, and major road rash on my knee and right shoulder took pretty much all the skin off in a palm sized area

[dustinthedrummer1]

Guessing the wheel came up? Maybe steering damper and what Kind of bike? Looked like a f4i?

[jacklyw]

It was a zzr 600, 2007. 

[BigBoy250F]

Dumbass :P Americans + 2 wheels = retard.

[jacklyw]

@BigBoy250F Yes, I agree I was being a retard. And I paid for it. lol  Accidents/ Shit happens. Thx for commenting

[cale954]

Crashing was kinda fun for me... untill the pain set in about 20 minutes later.

[jacklyw]

@37enjoylife-- That shake is known as a tank slap, which the front wheel is upset by different reasons. You see them on bad landing on wheelies, see them at drags at high speed. Some people say when tanking slapping give it more gas, so the front comes up and be ok. Try at your own risk. ^^

[Studflucker]

wow! thats scary. I have yet to lay down a bike, which is even more scary because i feel like its almost inevitable. just hope that when it does happen the circumstances are such that i won't be seriously injured or worse, dead.

anyhoo. glad to see you made it out alive. and i lol'd at your ground sky ground sky bubble!! at least your someone who can find humor in life's misfortunes.

[offroad84]

well there's the ol saying, those that have wrecked and those that will. i had mine last year, few broken bones and some scars as a reminder. i'm sure you have a new found respect for the machine you ride, not to mention your life. like atifrahi said, learn from your mistakes, i know i have. you know if you keep riding you can't say you wont do stupid sh!t but you won't be making newbie mistakes either. ride hard but know your limits and use that head that is luckily still attached to ya.

[ankees]

God didn't save you, you were just lucky. Someone could blow your brains out tomorrow, but i guess thats just god signaling to you that your work is done.

[jacklyw]

Actually, if I die right now, I am ok with it. However, the fact that i am still alive with all the stupid shit I've done. Means I still have work left on earth. The day he needs me by his side, he will take me home.

[atifrahi]

God doesn't need a nut job by His side !

[redfordfocussvt]

damn! that brings haunting memories back to my mind. its like a slow motion movie in your head when it happens. I promise you will be stupid again we all are

[jacklyw]

believe it or not, I got back on the bike the very next day, Just around the block for like 5 mins, But I was riding. I also rode with pads all over my knees and elbow. haha. True riders never stay down.

[ShortySIG552]

All the annotations in the video were spot on. You actually have a lot of time to think...

I was thinking.. "shit, I knew I shouldn't have done that" and "fuck, did I just wreck my new bike" and "Damn, this tumbling is uncomfortable"

I'm done being stupid on bikes.

[ShortySIG552]

I wrecked my two week old Buell two days ago. It felt a lot like this looked. I learned a good lesson. It will be a LONG time where I think really hard before acting a fool on a bike again.

[Showoff0877]

Wow man!!! That's pretty intense!!! I'm glad you made it out alive. I had the same thing happen when I first got my bike and the suspension was all out of whack. I got it back under control about six inches away from the trailer of an eighteen wheeler that I was drifting toward going under while it was slapping. Guess we both had an angel on our shoulder.

[jacklyw]

Yes sir, Yes sir. I believe we both are good heart person, and GOD still has work for us and kept us both alive. I didnt even break a bone or went to the hospital. I just got some road rash, THANK YOU GOD!! The first thing i said the my friend was "DID YOU GET THAT SHIT ON TAPE!!!" lol then we went home and smoked a FAT ass one. ^^

[atifrahi]

I was right. Please see my comment to yours above.

By the way, I've been riding on the street for over 30 years; the last 10 yrs. on Litre Bikes.

And yes, I see & have helped guys like you on the road since I'm a physician.

I helped load the last reckless rider onto Lifeflight last March just outside Houston, Texas. Just learn from your mistakes & grow up to be an old man like myself. We all have done silly things. You're a good kid. It'd be a shame if you made a fatal mistake.

Ride Safe !

[jacklyw]

yea.. I have learned. Thx. I still almost think about it everyday, and everytime I passed by that section of the HW. It was uneven pavement+ turning+ high speed+ I was being a newbie. lol. I had full gear tho. Otherwise I wouldn't have fingers to type to you right now. However, actually, It was a good experience. I value my life a lot more than ever before. You know what was going through my mind? "Oh, ok. I am gonna die right here, sorry mom." Then I hit the ground, rolling...

[steady2wheels]

I really cant understand how this happened, i got into a mean tankslapper hossing over cats eyes. if the rear starts slipping DONT close the throttle, i know it sounds weird but trust

[zm5431]

this is why we have steering dampers.

[Millertime89]

Mate at least you have the right attitude about it. Good on ya, shame about the bike but that main thing is that you lived to post it on youtube ;)

[aaronhurst]

i thought the lane on the far right was clear why oh why would u do that?

[jacklyw]

You are right. The truth is, I did not see the right lane, cause I was foucsing on going between the cars, which I did. But with high speed, turning, and a bit of bad road surface. I got what I deserve. The bike was a 07 ZZR 600.

[bylenga14]

at least you had a leather jacket and helmet on.

[jacklyw]

Yea, I had full gloves on too. They were like $120, Glad I was not being cheapo. Saved my hands and fingers. ^^

[Shep19AT4]

yeah, you should really save that engergy for off-roading. like bmx , motor cross or something

[Ghostrider304]

Wow, sorry to say it, but that is just dumb! Ever think of the other people on the road? My wife and kids could have been out there.

[jacklyw]

You are right, I have learn my lesson. I did cheat death once. ha, I found funny your name is ghost rider. Do you ride?

[kevcess]

there is know way this wreck could have affected your wife and kids.

[Ghostrider304]

jacklyw yes I do ride the name is from the military however.

kevcess, sure it could have.

[kevcess]

i understand that if the rider of the bike may drive recklessly in a car, then he could make a risk on your wife and kid's safety, but when he rides a bike recklessly, he is mostly putting himself at risk (Unless your wife and kids hang out on the side of the interstate, then the bike could have hit them).

[jacklyw]

honestly, the best way to slow down your driving is to have a crazy accident. Cause for sure after that, U think twice before going crazy. Because Wrecking sucks, and hurts a lot. With gears or not!

[kevcess]

yeah definately

[pedromusgo]

So we are clear...you are mentally retarded, right?

[jacklyw]

lol, I have been told that once or twice? lol. Just being young, and hot blooding flowing within me.

[okemos1]

Glad you're alright. What do you suppose caused that? And what kind of bike is that so I know not to ever ride one.

[jacklyw]

Honestly it had nothing to do with the bike, it was ccr 600 by kawi 07. If you notcie, I zip passed between 2 cars. I think it was the acc. + changing lanes+ a bit of sand on the highway. Thanks for watching.
