Rear Brake.

Not bad the wrist is still sore which will take a while to heal the back although it hurts occasionally is about as good as you can get for having six fractures in it. Good enough for me to be thinking about the Ohio Mile next May I would not recommend going thru this though. In fact I would say not recking a bike is the best thing to adhere to. The wifey does not want me to run the LSR but as long as I get a insurance policy she says she can live with it. I got to say I cannot blame her as running them races is akin to operating in the death zone !!!!

I just got this feeling that if I do not try it I will not have lived yet !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Besides what better then doing it on your own with no sponsors!!!!!!!!!

Well Boog the only thing I realy remmember befor the emergency room was the clear face shiled grinding off on the asphault as I watched it. The wittness stated I straightend my floppy left wrist out and was tryiong to upright the bike before the cops showed up but I do not remmenber it. I do remmeber waking up in the emergency room as the doctor was looking at the protable chest exrays telling the people I was not stranger to broken bones. I remmeber him saying look at all the screws plates and hardware in him.
I am thankfull Triple trouble came to my rescue and helped the wifefy load the bike up and rescue me from the hospital. It seems like there answer was to keep pumping me full of diladid (sp?) The whole ordeal kind of sucked and I missed out of a lot of riding time this year. I am glad I survived and am equally glad it was not the Falcon I wrecked but at the same time it hurt destroying a Rocket that was givine to me by Gman. I still have his tins hanging on the garage wall in memory of him.

I only can say it would be great to be one who reaches the 200 MPH mark at a santioned racetrack before I meet my end of riding career. Who knows maybe higher. For now 200 mph naked club is the goal !!!!!

Great to hear Scott

Well I finnaly got to replace the rear brake fluid, went out for a blast yesterday up through the hills out the back here.
30 Miles of Blasting and no brake fade, so would say that the fluid was the problem.
Am glad to have lost that scary feeling of hitting the rear brake and the pedal hits the metal !!!

I've disconnected my rear brake pedal at the moment, during the process of re-siting the footrests - just have the master cylinder tied up with a strap, so front brake only
