Well looks like the low side on Friday did more than a few bumps, brusis and a whole bunch of engine trouble (knocked the engine sproket loose yipee)

So long story short, havin some minor headaches, slurred speach at times and vision problems. Went to ER today said the swelling has gone down but if I don't start gettin better head back ASAP. So did any one get pics of that spectacular wreck???

Spidey, are you sure it wasn't the Hooters girls in your profile who squeezed your head? :]

Seriously, you take proper care of yourself and do the med's as prescribed. Don't mess with a head injury. That's an order!

Went down a little harder than you're letting on, eh?

Be careful, especially going to and from work...getting dizzy on I-94 around here is a death sentence!

It didn't look like you went down that hard, and definitely didn't look like you hit your head. From my vantage point in line it looked like you simply did a snap sommersault, all I can think of is maybe the spin and a light scuff caused the brain thump somehow.
I also don't see how the laydown could have damaged the engine sprocket, I thought you layed it down on the left side with a front tire washout.

Regardless, take care and listen to the doctors. Head injuries should be paid attention to.
Get well soon.

Get better soon Spidey. As a veteran of three concussions I can tell you to listen to the advice - don't mess with a head injury. Your wreck didn't look that bad, but sometimes it doesn't take much to get your noodle rattling around in its shell...

Outlaw,
Great bike!! Until I ride a 12R there is no comparision, I can carry conner speeds of 90 to 110 thru some serious twisties.

Everyone,
Thanks for the words. And it didn't seem that hard but my head cranked hard on the tarmac. I haven't had a chance to check out my helmet on the inside but it hit hard on the left side right by the visor cover.

Nev,
Haven't even touched her yet, still waiting for computers to come on line here at work so I can order parts.

FIRST concussion? sheeesh, you've lead a protected life, spidey! (who'da thunk it!)

seriously, take care -- ringing your bell can come back and haunt you later if you don't square it away the first time .. . . . .. . (don't ask how I know)

Hey Spidey,
Sorry to hear you sustained some bodily damage. Sounds like you'll survive though. That was my fist laydown also Friday. I guess when you push the envelope, you sometimes find the envelope pushes back.
Take care and see you next time.

Yeah that maybe true, but I really enjoy hammering my bike into the corners and seeing what it can do. I think Jerry said it best, I don't ride a 450 Lb street bike, I ride a 450 Lb dirt bike with the way I ride. But to Chris's credit, he is right on my heals and that makes it real interesting for both of us. I know there has to be faster guys out there than me. One guy on a S2 painted black and orange racing colors was pushing me real hard at Ukes, too bad he had to leave because I think he could have beaten me. Oops, kind of got off the subject of Spidey's concussion. Looking forward to September 20 at Suburban. Hope to see you there.

You've been doing real good on that S3.

Don't worry, I knocked an entire digit off my I.Q. when I sustained a concussion, and it doesn't seemed to affected me none much...

Bomber...When are you going to stop using the Concussion Story to justify the Drain Brammage you incurred in the 60's and 70's. I thought is was vogue to fess up to prior indiscretions at this age.
