Default How many times ya crashed?

3 for me, 1.flipped a wheelie, 2.low sided, and 3.car cut across in front of me, i ended up sliding into the car and it ran over me, THAT SUCKS! between the 3, broke all ribs on left side except one, broke shoulder/collar bone twice, fractured pelvis, all kinds of stitches, lost a lot of skin on hands, arms shoulders, legs, concusssion, not sure what else

crashing sucks, being ran completely over by a vehicle really sucks! dont try it!

Knock on wood, never. Yet.

I've dropped it twice, however (no-speed drops).

Other than no-speed drops... 4 times. 3 of them were low-speed lowsides (all because of dumb, rookie mistakes or trying to corner too hard on cold tires). The other one was pretty bad (ran off the road into gravel, lost control, high sided, ended up faceplanting into a rock). It laid me up in the hospital for 5 days.
