1st accident
« on: March 14, 2012, 07:45:27 PM »
Hey all,
It happened today at lunch, just so fast. I need a new front fender and lost a little pride.
This was on my 75 Wing.
Everyone and everything else ok but a front fender.

From the date of your join it looks like you have a bit of miles.  What happened?  Most important, of course, is you're unhurt...Larry

If you got any scratches on your helmet, use those as a reminder...of what your head might have looked like.

Paul,

Just glad you can post  ;D I hate it when the posts and emails stop forever. Glad you're safe. I suffer with you as I know that old 75 Wing is truely your pride and joy  ;) Sounds familiar. I have a new front fender on my Fattie. Did you lock up the front brake and drop it?

Glad it was just the fender that was damaged, Paul.  What happened?
