So don't let Exhaust land on your LEG!!!!
So yesterday went down to Baton Rouge to ride with the guys from that area.....Which they have a real nice lot by the way...so anyways they were doing crawfish at one of the guys house so most left and went to eat...I stayed with a few others to keep riding...
So a about an hour or so later a couple of the guys come back to the lot to start riding again...well i'm out on the bike and i go to dip the bike into a circle to the right with my foot in the seat and i dipped in alright...went to step down and somehow (still haven't figured it out yet) the bike ended up on top of my lower right leg with the exhaust just chillin.... and with the position i landed in i couldn't raise the bike up by myself...well no one had seen me just yet till i started yelling for someone and the closes guy to me was a guy with a broken ankle....so he limps over to me and finally lifts the bike off my damn leg....so after about a minute of the exhaust just sitting on my leg i get up and go to the hospital.....
end up with 2nd degree burns from about my ankle to my calf....

Exhaust heat
I had a friend when I was a kid fall of his old Honda four stroke DB, and get his leg sucked into the wheel between the pipe and tire. Burned him right down to the bone.

Re: So don't let Exhaust land on your LEG!!!!
Dam dude exahust burns suck! That silver SAV **** they give you at the hospital just feels like it keeps the heat in. Not much to relieve that kind of pain.
Heal up man!
I Wrecked my YZ125 and it ended up landing on my head. Knocked me the f*** OUT. I had my helmet on but still managed somehow to have the expansion pipe burn my ear and neck (2nd degree) and the bike was still running so of course it busted my ear drum too. I was unconsious so it stayed there untill someone on the other side of the sand pit i was riding in came to get it off.
I came to the next day for a world of pain and a nasty scar that showed for about 3 years.

When hot exhaust touches skin it goes directly to bubbling mode. No small burn, no "Oh, this is kind of warm".. it goes straight to skin meltage!! Sorry bro, heal up!
