No it was on rt. 14 whitman/east bridgewater line. The kid talked to insurance and from what I hear is getting a brand new one, except this time he's not gonna be retarded. I guess it scared some sense into him!! haha

To all you people that have trouble with BP.... sit all the way back in your seat with your left foot all the way out to side so it's like skitching while you ride along. Keep at a dead stop, lean foward and rev up -- drop the clutch and let the bike catch idle while playing with the rear brake. You'll find balance point, it's really not that hard..... I suffer from some retardation bullshit and I never once looped learning. So just PRACTICE....

If the paramedics and fire fighters came everytime I wrecked, I would know them all by their first name.

sorry man.. but thats bad advice. (except for the practice part) When learning sitdowns you want to be at a stable speed. And the closer you are to the tank the better. Best way to learn is standing.. Either foot on seat or staggard will help w/BP once youve got used to clutching it up. Then work on idle.

I don't know about you but going 30mph or so learning BP I'd rather come back onto the tail at 5mph and just get off and push it rather than watching my bike tumble down the road..... Learn a stand still, safer and a hell of alot easier to learn course this is all my own
