1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Good news is, looks like those frames are only $350-450 on ebay. Just have to swap the bits over. Another fun project.

 

Thanks everyone. Coulda been worse, coulda been better. It was right on schedule though. As soon as things are going great i find a way to sabotage myself. Now if i can get polo to stop whacking my roadrash with his tail.

BRO, that's not a little bike. That's a full on fucking bike bro. Also I don't really like motorcycles especially sport bikes, but Buells, Buells are cool as shit. I hope you didn't break it too much.

Also I too know all about getting the big greenie weenie up the ass from the universe as soon as everything is going smooth a "normal". Than BAAAAAAAM the fuckening happens!!

 

Yall aren't helping any. I still haven't gone down yet. Haven't dropped one either. 3 years in.

 

ATGATT. And dont get complacent. I wasnt watching the road, watching a dog run a fenceline like it was trying to race me.

 

Man, that musta been a really hairy situation! Glad you made it out with your face intact!

 

It was a wake up for me. I was being stupid and doing stupid stuff.

I don't own a bike anymore, but I still have a jacket and helmet (even though the wife is 100% against me having another one.

 

Oh I got it, pervert

 

I must have missed the story telling post. Glad you're alright Bee!! Fawk!
Edit: readit

 

I mean if you’re walking a way with only six stitches after dumping your bike while wearing flippity-flops, then it’s definitely still a win. I’m not going to judge you for wearing NGNTT. I think we’ve all been guilty of that at some point (probably many times).

I smooshed the heck out of my foot (i was wearing ATGATT) back in spring of 2019 at a dirtbike race. My heavy ktm 990 Adventure got away from me and fell over and crushed up my foot between the muffler and large rock. 1 surgery, 14 screws, 3 plates, 4 months of casts, a second surgery to remove all the hardware, and i’m up and running again. All told, i was in a significant amount of pain for a full year. As of today, i would consider that my foot is back around 95%. It still hurts every day, but absolutely NOTHING like it did before, so i don’t ever complain about it and i won’t let it slow me down. I can still run and do an asian squat, and those were my only two goals during my rehab.

 

Yessir, coulda been worse, coulda been better.

my first helmetless crash gave me a fist sized hematoma & broke my skull in a couple spots.


Anything worth doing is worth doing twice.

 

I’m hoping for only once...at least for this foot.

 

This rang a bell (Bayer), and I looked up your post. Not sure if this is real, but WTF?

Damn dude. Are you able to run or even jog with all that hardware in you? Looks painful.

 

BRUTAL

 

I only got a few pins, none of those cool screws.

 

Damn. Maybe it’s just an illusion but it looks like they inserted a probe or tracking device.

 

Its my antenna to connect to the mothership.

 

Damn bruh, that's wicked. Your lucky to be alive. Nice staples!

 

Breather line, just like for a front or rear dif... only different

 

Serious? Wow.

 

Sorry if I missed it, what fogs are these?
With the headlight mod to the mini projectors, I'm looking for an easy replacement for the fogs. Think I prefer yellow for actual fog...

 

Just guessing, although I do know pressure in there is not a good thing after an injury, or anytime really.

 

Make my funk the p-funk, I wants to get funked up.

The screws aren't anything special...like whatsoever. I kid you not, i think the hospital sends out a 1st year orderly student down to the local hardware store and grab whatever screws they can find off the floor and sneak them into their pocket when no one is looking. 7 out of the 14 screws installed were different. Like some were torx, some were allen, half of them different lengths, gauges, and tpi. I'm not a doctor nor a paid actor, but if i installed that kind of hodgepodgery with any of my finish carpentry jobs, i'd likely be fired by the customer...or worst, i'd fire myself.

 

At least they didn’t break one off and used an EZ-out to extract it.
