Well guys.. I almost ended up doing this in 90 km/h..
A stupid guy waiting to drive onto the highway, then he see me, brakes, and when I'm 10m away from him he just drives!
Had to slam over to the other lane, but it was a car there. Luckily he braked and I gave full throttle and managed to pass him with cm clearance.
Would probable be dead right now if that guy hadn't braked..

Had about 190 in pulse the whole way home.
The most scary experience I've ever had!
@EJD, Yeah.. Really lucky
@Chrism15, Thought about following him and ask what the hell he was doing, but since I'm driving a ped and there is a 45km/h here in Norway I decided to just let it go.. The whole bike started wobbling because of the sharp turn.
I slammed with a 4 day old scooter into the side of a van that turned of the mainroad into the driveway of a feulstation... total los for the scooter and a nice scar on my kneekap from the ignition lock...
And with my RS50 i had a guy that just drove out of a feulstation in the rain with out properly looking left and right onto the road (he never saw me untill he heard a crashing noise)... took really long to get over my fear of "driveways" and sideroads etc. after that.
Sounds nasty, crashing a bike is one of those things that you don't really feel scared about until it happens.
Mind you, not that I have ever crashed a bike, I think I have only rode a few miles so far
mate its horrible!
especially when you watch your dream be smashed to pieces :'(
but i will have another project thread for the new bike

Its especaily nasty wen you always look out, and some idiot who doesnt pay attencion/doesnt look causes you to crash, because you never know wen that going to happen and its something completly out of your controle you get scared wen you drive past a similar road situtaion like an bussy petrol station or an other similar exit or sideroad.Sounds nasty, crashing a bike is one of those things that you don't really feel scared about until it happens.

I had a fun experience today guy pulled out on me looking the wrong way ON HIS MOBILE PHONE! had to swerve out of the way Luckily it was a warm and dry day. But it really shit me up basically had my knee down.. After recovering from a mini heart attack i followed him... noted his plate and reported him to the police. I know it sounds petty, but last year my friend died because of some idiot texting on his mobile phone, he veared into the wrong side of the road , my friend swerved out of the way and lost cotrol of the car and hit a tree. Died on impact...
did the right thing reporting him.
i nearly got hit about 3 weeks after owning my Rs50, ok i couldnt sleepso i decided to go outside at 12:30am and make faring brackets for my side panels (at the time they were held on by cable ties
) but at first i thought i see if i prefered it without side panels (at the time seemed alright) so i went for a ride with no side panels at 1am.... going down a main road at about 30mph (probly only time iv actually bothered with the speed limit haha) anyway a taxi driver OBVIOUSLY thought it was 1am and no one is out at 1am so he wasnt looking... just as i got up to the junction bam! he went straight out and i watched him, he didnt look my way! so i slammed on and stop just before his door. he shit himself knowing he didnt look and at this point he is diagnoly parked across the main road coz hes noticed iv just slammed on to the side of him and he reversed and let me go on as if to say sorry? gggrr

Damn , some bad drivers out there. So far i've been lucky and not been cut up, jumped infront of , that sort of stuff. Only been riding for about a month. Theres still time :/
Everyone crashes.. Some get back on , others don't, Some cannot....
iv never had a crash, come close countless times but never hit the deck yet
few off top of my head
on way home following my dad on my new suzuki, in a car park.... he went to turn in and park to the right.... i went down the right hand side full throttle - luckyily my dads a good driver and checks his mirrors ect and turned away just in time. laughed it off thank god
in the snow riding at 40mph down a main road... watched a lorry in front of me slide SIDE ON and slowly turn back! and then i did the exact same thing - wouldnt say i nearly came off though it was more like "shit im going side ways but still straight ahead"
came up to a set of lights on my RS with two mates on peds.... filtered through the traffic to the front, anchored on the front brake and it dived sidways coz of LOOSE ROAD SURFACE like absorbant granuals. NO SIGNS OR EWT felt like suring the council but no damage
