Too bad that girl wasn't around last week when I low sided my S40 turning onto a gravel road. The front tire slid out and gravity took over. It tore a hole in my jeans and messed up my knee a little but the rest of me was covered in protective gear. The "armored" elbow inserts did thier job and the kevlar blended mesh gloves also did what they are supposed to do. I was wearing a helmet but didn't hit my head.

Anyway it wasn't so easy to pick up the bike and a passing motorist stopped to check on me and then assisted in lifting the bike. I was glad they stopped.

Howcum if fluids are leaking you're supposed to surrender?
And she picked up a bike that WAS down. Flat, nothing, no crash bars, no bags..
Good stuff to think about. And Remember, especially
In the moment. When adrenaline and embarrassment are maxed out.. Slowdown,, hit the kill,then think. Once you hurt that lower back, it's never quite the same. And stooping down to grab a bike is just not a safe lift.

^^^ What JoG said^^^

Take it from me... two years ago, compression fracture L4... I am headed to the doc again next week to get another bone density check to see if i can get a fusion done.

If the gas is dripping on the head.... just stand back and let it.... if it catches fire... get a taxi to the bus station.
Don't he man it up! Especially if it has 140lbs extra gear on it!

If my bike was down and dripping gas, I'd still pick it up. I'd rather it burn with me trying "something" than let it lay there with me just watching. Which side of the line does that put me?

Fresh gas on a red hot engine may not necessarily catch fire. I came off the interstate to fill-up and the pump didn't shut off when it normally would. Gas poured over the tank on to the HOT engine. The wind shield cleaner was right their and it was full of water so I started scrubbing it down with a whole lot of water. Not sure what would have happened if I didn't have access to water....

Best regards,

The engine should be nowhere near hot enough to set off flames. Usually the fuel will just boil off. But, it is a very scary feeling. If there's liquid fuel on the hot engine, don't try to start it. You might just supply the needed catalyst to get the flames.

JOG needs the mobile site where they still use real, standard codecs instead of this webm junk they have foist upon the rest of us.

JOG, you might get it to work if you edit the URL to say m.youtube.com/whatever

You might try moboplayer with its codec pack. It plays most videos from standard pc format video sources.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BeLkrPkjimo this is the first one without the embedded player.

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BeLkrPkjimo this is m.youtube.com

It works fine on my phone as it is so, I don't know how much or if any help this will be. It does start the youtube app to play it though.
