No votes for Wreck story with pictures so I'll share..
I was on my way to Flint with my GF (now wife) along M21 in Michigan and a farmer lost a load of hay in front of us going about 60 mph. Nothing I could do but stay the course and hold on. Next thing I knew it I was on my side, the bike on my leg in a pile of loose hay. We were bit shaken up, got some road rash, but the bike fared pretty good. Dent in the tank, broken side cover, hi-way bar bent, windshield popped off and a scraped muffler.
I told the farmer I was glad he wasn't hauling scrap metal. If you're going to run into anything, bales of hay would be it.
After all the reports were filed and we got check out by the EMT, we continued on our 60+ mile journey.
Now, I get real nervous riding behind trailers or pickups hauling a bunch of crap.
My Wife snapped this after the crash, the farmer is talking to the trooper in the background.
hey grepper, is that bike now the stretched red bobber of yours?
