Bp619 104 Posted September 14, 2018 I watched that earlier such a rookie move. I have 2 rekluse bikes and 2 non rekluse and cant see how this happened just think was not paying attention and wacked throttle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Champ 116 Posted September 14, 2018 I wonder who I could contact to buy a "predisastered" demo bike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wintyfresh 46 Posted September 14, 2018 Having two rekluse bikes and two traditional bikes, I don't really get how that'd lead to this situation. Stalling the bike cuz you forgot to pull in the clutch? Totally. Whiskey-throttle induced wheelie? Rekluse bike would do the same thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
97xr400r 122 Posted September 14, 2018 he must have thought the 25 hp rumor was true, haha. Ah man, that sucks! But seriously, getting used to different than standard controls on a machine can be disastrously confusing during those oh shiz moments. I have screwed up so many times on weekends im riding a moto and a bicycle, front brake gets swapped around, so sketchy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tvscum 43 Posted September 14, 2018 He should have reviewed the damage and also how the replacement bike performed on the ride.
