Ok, I just got my bike and 2 weeks after i got it, me and my wife went riding down the beach (before hurricane Ivan) and it was really late and i dont know what the hell happened, but i started to go around a curve and i dont exactly know what happened but i do know i put on the brakes before the curve and i ended up in the sand. Thank god i aimed for it otherwise it would have been the pavement. My wife flew about 25 feet or so in the air and wound up with a sprained shoulder and i didnt let go of the bike and ended up with a sprained wrist, scrapes and a gash on my right leg. luckly we were not going too fast when we stopped or it could have been worse. i think it knocked me out for a few min cause i dont remember what happened. my wife thought i was dead. i am very lucky to be here right now. but i got right back on after letting it sit for awhile and it finally started back up. the only thing that sucked about it i did get a little dent in the tank but that is all the damage that i recieved from the accident. i rode her home and the bike sat for awhile due to the hurricane here in pensacola fl. i have ridden it for the last 3 days now due to my car being out of commission. the bike is still running strong and i wont give it up. i am still a little shaky sometimes, but hey who isnt after any kind of accident
