champ6966 Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 well i havent rode my bike for about a week and a half untill last night i shouldve left it parked untill taking it to the proper riding grounds but no a pin backed out in one carb slide last time i rode it and after finanly gettin a chance to reset it i decided to warm it up outside my house that led to neighbors watching and listening to bike which led to quick cruise around yard which led to the big mistuake of leading me out to road for a quick showoff of the awesome power and now i sit here on one butt cheek still bleeding from my left wrist up over shoulder down to bottom of my ass left knee and both hands! damn it burns very deep road rash! I keep askin myself whats wrong w/ right foot i know break pedels there but i guess it happened faster then i could react i never understood how that could happen to other people but here i sit (well sortive) anyways to the big problem being conserned about the shee i hobbled out to garage this morning didnt sleep all night anyways and i bent both upper and lower a arms and took out the controls for lights start switch assembly lots of other cosmatic damage but im hoping some one here can help hook me up w/ those parts or tell me how to get atleast the control assembly ill buy and pay for shipping if anyone has the parts laying around i dont want to know what yamaha would charge me! the force of impact was unreal after grinding half of wheele bar off bike rolled end over end once and sideways once slideing on fenders,bars and then landed on its feet what a showoff huh? thanks champ6966 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee04le Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Sorry to hear about your bruised bike and ego but good story dude . Don't feel too bad. I did the same thing about 3 weeks ago in a dirt drag with a bunch of people watching. I hit a shot of nitrous and dumped the clutch on 3rd and shee wheelied out from under me before I new what happened. I rolled to my feet just in time to see a spectacular display of barrell rolls and endos...kicking up a cloud of dust you wouldn't believe. I rolled her back over and shee wasn't looking too pretty but it didn't turn out to be too bad. The rear of the frame where the grab bar bolts was tweeked up pretty bad. Both right tires were off the rim (broke the bead) and bent my rear axle. Everything else survived amazingly (lonestar stem, protaper bars and quicksand arms survived...oh, I did have to have Gary send me a couple of crush collars for my right arms...they got crushed). At least I didn't get hurt. Hope you heal up quick and get your bike fixed relatively cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black&Blue00 Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 just do away with the light switch and put in a toggle switch and do away with the kill switch and get a prodesing and hook it up you can even get rid of the key and give it a very clean look on the bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightrider Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Never had a wreck on the shee to date,unless I count the holeshot that turned into the most violent wheelie and threw me off like I was riding a bronc bareback.I came up so fast that the guys racing on either sides of me(Raptor and 450)stopped when they saw my wheeles fly up past them. Dug about a foot deep tench with the bumper and bent it to shit.Didn't bend the rear part of the frame,but the powdercoat cracked,so it must have flexed quite a bit. Combination of holeshot XCT,super tacky dirt,bad reeds and first time on a new set of works shocks.They really make the front end light on launches.

Klotzban1 Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 I bet those 4 strkes about sh*t when your wheels went up. I havent got tossed yet , but I launched a double jump once and made love to the Handlebars.....that freakin hurt. My head bounce off the bars and it felt like my brain changed positions.

Wassup350 Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 That happened to me about 3 times!!! Trying to ride wheelies then hit the powerband then it just flips wildly. I've done that in like 4th gear and f**ked up my knee pretty bad a few months ago, it still hurts a bit when in certain situations. The j-arms also got bent and i wrecked a set of plastics.
