OUCH!  :o

Now you can compare note with Jerry RxMan since he has a similar condition thanks to some twit on a sport bike going wide into his lane on the Tail of the Dragron several years ago.

Heal quickly!

Congrats, Frank :) :)

I'll be watching your escapades from the couch while my broken ankle heals. Went down with my Himalayan on a Forestry road near Yellowstone NP.......I now have Ti plates screws 8)

Oh no!!! You just flew down the salt flats at high speeds without incident but end up injuring yourself at low speeds?? Dang it man. 😕.  As far as the new hardware, we only use titanium to reduce weight. Lol.

I wasn't able to seal the deal in street ET this past weekend but for the next few days I'm in Atlanta participating in the NHRA Div 2 team bracket finals.  I'm racing my Kawasaki dragbike at this event.  I was able to get to the semis today in the gamblers race before breaking out for the loss. Hopefully I'll do better tomorrow because I'll be competing in the race of champions. I won the local track championship at Carolina Dragway which qualified me to race against other track champions within Div 2 to determine the divisional winner.  Wish me luck fellas.

 Frank, are the clutches holding up OK?  I've been told they are the weak link, not sure if that's a fact.

Don. I ran a 10.35@124mph. I don't have heavy duty springs. I've been 10.29 on this bike in testing. I haven't pulled the clutch cover off to inspect the plates because I've detected no sign of slippage yet. All I can tell you about what others are saying regarding slippage is to always consider the source. By the way, the clutch pack in my F3 has been in the bike around 3 years or more. I had a few 1.48 sixty foot times last weekend.  Once again,  no heavy duty springs. I  do use stock Honda late F model clutch packs in both bikes, not aftermarket.

  Thanks, that's what I remember hearing. A big cc Hayabusa guy was coaching me on the old cb's clutches. My old
 1124 had some pretty stock looking clutch stuff in it when I opened it up.
