I Managed to Crash My Motorbike Twice in One Journey

The roads were icy and the skies full of hail and snow but I had places I needed to be. I decided to brave the elements and take my bike out; this turned into an expensive mistake.

I first started fishtailing as soon as I came off the main roads, so I whacked on those hazards, dangled my feet for support and dropped my speed down to around 10 MPH. The back wheel flicked on occasion, causing brief moments of panic, but I kept her upright right until I was pulling into the kerb at my destination. The wheel just went completely, throwing me to the ground where I landed on my shoulder and back.

After wheeling my bike off the icy back streets, I took a moment to take stock and assess the damage. The gear lever was jammed in a 12 O'clock position but I continued home (albeit loudly and stuck in second).

Screaming in second and with a sore side, I got my beloved steed (almost) all the way home, where I came off again when mounting the pavement at a drop-kerb.


I managed to realign the gear lever but my fairings are full of scrapes. 😖

Stay frosty out there!

A little sore but I still have all my limbs lol. It's my only form of transport, so sadly I need to ride it in all weathers.

Boy you are lucky if you didn't do yourself damage.

Bikes on water is a no go let alone on ice. Specially if it is running at any decent speed.

Im glad it didnt end up worse.
Hope your doing good.
Happy wknd

Stay safe & Take care
I'm really glad you're okay man but for fuck's sake...I would never take my crotch rocket out with snow/ice on the ground.

Nevertheless, bikes can be replaced but you cannot. Safe travels fellow rider.
