Well went on a ride witch ended in a major crash. While going on a trail, i wheelied across a mudhole and about halfway the bike turned 90 degrees sending me airbourne off a enbankment. Bike ended up hanging out of a tree, and me knocked out, bruised and scraped up. Probably would have been a fatality if I hadnt had my helmet and chest gear on. anyway the bike hung upside down for a while, and when we got it outit atarted up but after a while the thing started rattling or knocking really loud and the oil light came on, The tank read way over full. As far as cosmetic now the steering stem, bars, front brake lever, front plastic, front tire, front bumper, and the toe is knocked out. The rear plastic is creased to hell and the footwells are screwed. Right now I am sore and discusted, Just got happy with it then this. Considering selling out. Chiknhawk

 

The moral of the story is <u>NOT</u> to wheelie across any kind of liquid. Same thing happened to a close friend last year in Michigan's upper peninsula. I was right behind him when he decided to wheelie through a small water hole. He had the exact same result as you. Hope your feeling better soon.

 

dont sell the ds because of a little crash! just regroup your self and try it again! mabe youll make it this time

 

Hey bomerboy is right don't sell the ds, just fix her up with a few mods, but only after you get your marbels back... glad your in one piece.

 

The moral of the story is NOT to wheelie at all....!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

 

Been through the rebuild a couple of times myself.I wouldnt give it up for anything.

 

Glad your O.K.

 

Think of it as an excuse for some mods[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

How can something so good hurt so bad?? It feels like I got ran over by a Mack truck. LOL

 

Unless you are getting out altogether, don't sell that bad boy just yet. Any quad will get tossed under the same circumstances, so the DS isn't to blame. Anyway, I hope you have a speedy recovery.
