Well when I first read this thread I wasn't really sure. But this morning I was definitely having a bad feeling about things. I woke up with a stiff neck and a mild hangover, but no big deal. On the way to the meet-up point i managed to kill the bike (I haven't killed a bike in probably at least a year and half). Right as we left i killed the bike again (this time the kickstand was down) which meant we lost the group. but no big deal we caught up later.
Up till then it was fine. We had a new rider on a BRAND new 08 ninja 250, blue, bought 3 weeks ago. He hit some gravel in a very slow speed 90 degree turn onto another street and went down. He was alright for the most part, just a little banged up, shocked and embarrassed. thankfully a guy driving by in a pickup happened to be a 1st responder so he patched him up. His bike was very rashed up on the left side, turn signal broke off. I gotta say tho the old 250 took drops and falls MUCH cleaner than the new one does. either way after a little cranking on his bike he was back on the road. Anyways long story short I'm taking it way easy next time i don't have a good feeling...
