That was all a while ago Micheal. Bones have healed, and bike is repaired... so it is all good:) Hopefully we can keep it all in one piece for a while! Cheers!

Yeah, I know,
That's why I was saying I need to spend a bit more time in the general area. Nevertheless, glad you're all right man, and kudos for gettin' your machine all back together lookin' so purdy, even if it is a Honda
(sorry could't resist the honda poke)

It's an old post I know... the 929 is long gone... However
Stan sent a few photo's of the broadford crash site that were stuck on his phone for a few years! Not great quality, but give you an idea of the scope of the crash!
The high side happened at broadford raceway, turn one, on the up hill on-camber to down hill off, and onto the back straight section... If you know what I mean...
It's a pretty fast corner at this point
The blackie... still on the up hill section:
Then there is the airborne section/gap: (looks like you caught a couple of ufo's in this shot Stan!
And then the landing/impact zone:
The bike and myself came to rest in the dirt on the other side of the track down near the van!
Great shots Stan!
