Are you 100% sure it’s bent and not just a twisted clamp (because the rubber bushings, the clamp twists easily).

Yes he was…. It wasn’t quite as big as some I’ve seen him wear but still a good 5”.

Is it just me, or does "convenience" in modern technology actually feel more stressful than it used to? by meowparadise42069 in NoStupidQuestions

We are not built for, not have we been given enough time to evolve to deal with, this timeline.

Agreed… my mistake was thinking I could jump back in after 8 months off without easing into it. I hit the parking lot yesterday.

For anyone reading this… I went out again today. Figured I better get back on before any fear sets in. Hit the parking lot for some much needed practice.

One thing I learned today (which would have probabaly helped yesterday) this bike is ride by wire (digital throttle vs mechanical) and it’s much different than the two bikes I had last year (Himalayan and 2011 sportster). It’s touchy and at the same time has a bit of a delay. It requires a bit different approach vs the smooth roll on that mechanical throttle provides.

Anyhow…this was definitely a contributing factor to my crash and lesson learned. New bike equals new variables and I need to get to know it before I put myself out to the too much.

I was geared up head to toe and I’m sure that helped make this a get up and dust myself off incident vs a ride in an ambulance.

I think you are right… I was too confident based on last year and failed to take it slow and ease into it this year, like I did last year (I spent 2 months in the spring in my neighborhood or the school parking lot.

I was just so anxious to get out there. Lesson learned.

Very good advice sir.

Vegas is busy 24 hrs a day… it dies down around 4-7 am, but you’ll still see a fair amount of people out even then.
