I put my other tires on the DRZ. Race takeoff Dunlop GPA front and pilot power rear. Well the tire lube got all over the right side of the front tire and I forgot to clean it off. The whole right side of the tire is super glazed.
I go to turn right onto kipling from morrison, and lose the front. The bike slides into kipling and people are swerving around it lol. I get up and wave them to stop and pick the bitch up. Fire it up and ride away.
Only damage is my glove and my work slacks. SOAB
this is what happens when you don't let a certified dunlop tire fitter mount your tires
you sure it wasn't cold tires or gravel that got you?
glad you are alright man...stupid shit like that can often end alot worse.

What's it with all of these nOObs crashing?
lube + tire = no bueno
Glad you're okay. Thank goodness it's just a DRZ.
I guess you can have to much lube...
Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.
OH LAWD! Glad ur OK man. I hate thinking about sliding into traffic, surfing on top ofthe DRZ. Any swelling yet on your hand? Latent injuries suck.

Last time this happened to me, I was leaving my house with Justin at like 7 or 8 in the morning in March. I went to back it in taking a right turn, and that son of a bitch backed all the way in and just kind of laid me down real gently at like 2 mph.

Meh, I have wrecked enough times that pride is usually only hurt if it's my fault for being a dumbass. Although I should have wiped that shit off.
Exactly.
Left side of front tire = good
Right side of front tire = bad
Zach, bring me some sandpaper when you come to smash.
at least DR-Z are made to tip over. you aren't riding if it doesn't hit the ground

That's why I always try to mount it dry as possible. (yeah I know how it sounds, haha)

There's nothing that will ever replace the warm feeling of a perfectly blipped 6th-to-4th downshift, that drops right lane traffic like 1st first semester chem-lab.
