|  When the fuel light lights up...
Last week I learned about cause and effect... Cause : A fuel injected bike, near empty gas while initiating a turn from a dead stop... Effect : Can lead to lack of fuel to the pickup and a stall which causes the bike to lose all forward motion and drop hard to the side you are leaning on. Aftermath : I was lucky to have the "If you drop your shiny ride, it will look like sh*t and cost money" adrenaline rush. I managed to keep her up with my right leg as a bike stand and every ounce of strength from the rest of me. What I learnt... don't ride near empty. When the light flashes, fill'er up!!! |
