Dave and I hit a rain storm and made a last minute dive off to the right in a half maintained pull off to turn around quickly. I ran over a spot with large cement chunks and think I popped the clutch a tad to lose control of the situation. Handlebars dove hard right and the bike dumped off to the right, but the muffler caught on the boulders and helped stop a complete fall along with me grabbing on the grips and muscling it back up. Just a few scrapes and dings on the underside of the muffler.
It happens...
Why didn't I know about this?
Should I keep a closer watch in my mirrors? (You know what happens when I look into my mirrors too long).
Remember ...we were southbound after our bbq lunch and hit that storm and ditched to the right really fast. Those were the dings on my muffler we were looking at when the bike was loaded up on the truck.
I know what happens when you get stuck on the mirrors
