fastbanshee8 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 I broke 5 ribs on my left side. When I got up, it felt like Lincoln Logs rolling around in my chest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shogs Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 "drifting" on my z400 in 4th gear around a turn in an open field, flip and roll completely over myself (on my head). Luckily I had a helmet on but that is what broke my collar bone, and almost punctured my lung. All in all not bad for the worst wipeout though. I faceplanted on my brothers bruin 350 and did a front flip off my z400 after hitting a tree. My banshee is loyal, either I spin out dodge the trees lol. Not the same luck on anything else.

KickStartMyHeart Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Me and my friend were riding at a track and I hit a jump with a little rock ledge at the top and kicked my back end up and I went off the side and whiplashed my head into the dirt. I cracked my helmet and had nosebleeds and saw spots for several days. Bcuz of that, I am a firm believer in helmets. Yeah they are hot and sweaty, but wear one, u'll be thankful you did if something does happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crustydemon Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Third degree shoulder separation( snapped 2 tendons) and sprained both ankles bilaterally (both ways). Long story short, I was riding where I shouldnt have been anyway and hit a hill that I had jumped before but didnt take the time to ride around to look at the back side. They had taken half of the landing area out with a Cat and I nose dived hard...real hard. I drink tons of milk and my bones dont break easy but if you have ever had a shoulder separation you'd wish your collar bone would have broke instead.

baker Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 ive had a couple the worst was probly my 6th gear wide open wheelie with no rear bar or rear brakes, had it at bout 11 oclock when the shee struck 12 it was all over it ground the silencers down till the plastic cought the road and tossed us sideways i bailed wearing shorts and t shirt, no helmet(stupid but lucky) road rash from legs to upper back owwwwwwwch. not to mention by shee went 94mph next to by bros truck. the human body skids a long way at 94 mph took about 6 months to heal, the second worst would be meeting a tree in 4th gear racing hairscrambles few broken ribs and broken hand, nothing like roadrash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DallasGDub Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 On the quad, My biggest break was my foot in several places, but it was not really a wreck. I just landed wrong on a small jump. (w/boots on…wtf…). I still have no idea how I did that much damage. I wrecked pretty hard casing a jump, hurt my wrist, and ribs. I do not know if I broke anything, but it felt like it. Cracked my chest protector. I also pulled my right elbow pretty bad. Took almost a year to heal from that. On my old dirt bike, I broke my arm, right hand, and 3 fingers after running into a tree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheesandrider Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 I was riding at Sandlake years ago, I came on a spot where a buggy had been cutting donuts and I hit the brakes instead of getting on the gas and carrying the front end through it. I got bounced around, my right foot came off the peg and got sucked into the back tire(89 Banshee that did not come with foot guards). The tire pulled me off the bike and as I came off the right footpeg scraped up my right leg to the top, across my nuts and then down my left leg as I got pulled under the bike and ran over. The bike then shot up in the air and rolled in mid air,when it came down it cracked the frame above the footpeg mount. I ended up with raspberries on my nuts and sore muscles in my groin and a ripped pair of Levis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hank 024 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 ripping in the dunes and hit a huge rock hidden in the sand , rolled a few times . When i stood up a bone was sticking out of my shoulder and still had over a mile ride to the trucks. Long story short it hurt really bad and didnt ride for 8 months but had some time to fix up the shee luckly the damage wasnt much, more damage to me 10,000 worth of medical bills and some messed up xrays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DallasGDub Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Wow, seems to be an ongoing theme with the Collar Bone injuries. What protection can I use to help prevent this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullthrottle02 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Was riding wheelies in front of a buddies house when I brought it back all the way on the rear grab bar. The grab bar slid across the asphalt just as I went over a man hole cover. The bike flipped one direction as I flipped the other. Bad thing was the banshee landed on its tires and kept going, there I am knocked loopy bleeding from my head and elbow having to chase my bike down the road.

Karac Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) Origional injury didn't happen on the she it happened on my r6, but I decided not to have surgery and let it heal on it's own (bad idea). So the banshee faceplate rebroke it after I let it heal for 4 months. Got me a titanium plate and 12 screws, and didn't wanna wait for the staples to come out cause they itched like hell so I took em out with some needle nose and dykes....lol Edited January 12, 2010 by Karac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed350x Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I stubbed my toe on a banshee frame in my garage. I think I also scraped a finger working on an engine one day. I haven't had many BAD wrecks, but I've helped life-flight 6 people out of KP sand dunes in the last 5 years. some random bruises from my banshee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
