Found this on another forum and am reposting:

"You know you've had a bad day at the race track when they leave your bike at its crashed point until the end of the day. Then to retrieve the motorcycle they use a front end loader with a heavy nylon strap to hoist back over the metal railing.

This crash happened at Grattan last weekend. The guy lowsided on the back side of the track. He got off the bike, and the way the bike crashed it ended up back on its wheels rolling at an alarming rate directly 90 degrees toward the metal railing. When it hit the metal railing the bike launched itself over and there is a mark on the tree 10 feet high.

The front end of the bike is hanging only from cables and brake lines."




Is it just me or does this bike look good all things considered?
