Everybody knows the French can't ride. Right after the C14 came out a French Moto Journalist crashed one trying to pop a wheelie.

Wonder if it's the same guy?

Damn sidebags....gets you everytime.

I remember this one, it's not the same guy but working for the same Journal.

oh sheeeesus that's not gonna rub right out

Hey I've had a side bag incident once on a VFR. You learn a lesson from that, not to ever do it again! He's got to be new to bikes with side bags.

Maybe the French were on to something when they decided to cap horsepower. It's looking like 10 hp may be a good limit.

 

[rickysnickers]

HA! That might even be too much. They need to stick to their Vespas and such.

Good thing only the guy landed in the boat, and not the bike. Trashing that bike was about a $17k mistake. When they land on the front wheel like that the frame will be toast. But trashing the sailboat like that would have been a lot more.

 

[dcarver]

Ouch. That's what they call a bad day..

 

[El Toro Joe]

you just can't fix stupid

 

[Iris]

OH SHIT!!!

That's too bad. That looks like it could happen to anybody. You guys are a little hard on this guy's misfortune. I hope you never do anything by mistake. Jus sayin......

 

[ahchiu]

Wow that's going to leave a mark, hes lucky the bike didn't land on top of him, I don't know why they don't have a rail for the sea wall?

 

[McRide]

I think he missed the sign that says ' NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BIKES THAT FALL OVER THE EDGE'...

 

[FJRay]

Looks like that's not a place for vehicle traffic. Maybe why there is a gate and big chains. Stupid is supposed to hurt.

 

[beemerdons]

you just can't fix stupid

Joe, you also cannot fix the fecking French either!

 

[TouringRider]

From Lolo to everybody in the WORLD: "It is kind to worry about me guys. Dislocated left thumb, bruises almost everywhere but that's it."

 

[chivvalry]

He's lucky... he could have easily broken some bones... and if the bike had landed on top of him? ouch.

So easy to do when you do not pay attention, good reminder for me to always pay attention when in close quarters
