Well it happened. I was riding this morning and want to pull into a gas station, making a left turn. I grabbed the front brake to hard with the bars turned and over I went. The bike landed on my ankle and I then did a forward roll and landed on my back. In all my pain at the time all I was thinking about was what happened to my bike. It didn't do that much to it. Scuffed up the passenger peg, broke the shifter and turn signal, and tore up the grip a little. As for me I fractured my Fibula and Novicular bone. Ankle and the bone on the top of by foot. I go to the orthopedic tomorrow to see if I need a cast. I did get a prescription for Vicodin. Bring on the BEER. here are some pics to look at

It sounds like a mohawk issue. They're known for doing things like that. |

Oh man that sucks. I hope you and the bike heal up ok. Ditch the mohawk. This things are known to bring nothing but bad luck. |

Whenever there's an option, always choose the bike breaking instead of you. |
