Default Crash!! and scramblers are tough

Hey all while riding yesterday....we had a minor mishap........one of my buddies on his scrammy had a pretty bad accident.....we were coming down this old skid road, and he was jumping the whoopty whoops....and well when he landed the a$$ end kinda bounced back up and was doing an endo...it threw him off the machine...and the old 400 rolled 7 times end over end.....

He went to the hospitol stay over night.....has a bruised lung....but is just fine other then that...

the machine...well....the a-arm bent.....bent the handle bars....and steering stem......brok the lights.....and the tire is actually off the rim but there is like 1/4 to a 1/2 in of mud pack b/t the rim and the bead of the tire and its still holding air.....

infact it started right up when everything was all said n done..and i drove it right on the back of my truck....


he was very lucky.....from what everyone said...it could have been alot worse then what it was........course any accident can be like that....


but i just thought i would shar this info........

i hope everyone had a better weekend..then we did.....


happy trails and drive safe..
