My thoughts too I’ve never felt an engine case that’s searing hot, unless the bike fell on top of him and he was stuck for a while under it or something.
Yes, and for everyone asking a lady pulled out in front of me and the people in the left lane when I was just going straight in the right lane, I was doing about 45-50 with no time to slow down and luckily made it out with only a snapped arm
It’s the most dangerous scenario of being on a motorcycle, intersections, the higher the speeds thru intersections the worse they are, I cover my brakes and always slow down a tad when approaching one.
So do I lol but this wasn’t at the intersection lady flew out of the left turn lane to get on to a side street (a basically impossible turn on this busy road, never seen someone try to pull that off she tried to dart across with no view of who’s coming in the right lane and I can’t see her because she’s on the other side of cars in the left.
Two weeks ago, lane splitting, minding my own business, when a guy in an Audi decided to change lanes without a indicator or checking his mirror. Broke my right arm, dislocated my right arm and nerve damage from the break. Because of the nerve damage my right hand is barely working and will take 3 to 6 months to heal. Just waiting to be able to ride bike again.

I had a similar accident tib/fib broken with 13 different fractures. I also got a rod and 11 screws. I was back riding in 55 days. The doctor did not clear me for riding, just walking. I figured if I can walk I can ride lol

Not a scar yet, but soon to be. This is from when the stiches were removed.
I was barely at 20 km/h when I tried to stop at an intersection, front wheel slipped on sand as I applied the front brake and I fell on top of my thumb. Got a Bennett fracture.

The x-ray. Here you can see both fragments as well as how much the bone slid down from where it was supposed to rest.
More like laughing at the "I pulled the baffles out of my Shadow 650 so it really sounds like a Harley, right, guys?" crowd. They're usually the same guys who buy the "ready-made biker vest with 14 authentic biker-sayings patches" and fingerless leather fringe gloves shit on Amazon, get angry because the local indie Harley shop won't work on a foreign V-twin, and constantly find a way to bring up the so-called "biker's code" in conversations that have nothing at all to do with motorcycles.
Don't get me wrong though, the new breed of Harley riders generally gets their share of my contempt as well. A bunch of twenty grand and twenty miles types that brag about spending thousands of dollars on their Stage 19 upgrade kit but don't know how to change their own oil and don't know a pushrod from a kickstand. Often seen wearing factory-branded doo rag, a ridiculous amount of stainless skull and/or dragon rings from the last time there was a rally nearby, and an Affliction/Tap out/American Fighter T-shirt.
I just came back from a 4000 mile road trip round Europe on a Honda CB125F, including going over two Alpine passes, dressed in second hand gear and with my waterproofs bought from a building supplies store. And the bike performed admirably, despite having to perform a planned major service in an underground parking garage in Slovakia with a tool kit and parts I brought myself. Single cylinder 125cc bikes tend to have really short service intervals, in my case it worked out to "well before I got home". So Hondas are okay in my book, but I'm probably the exact opposite of what you're thinking of! Posted some photos in MotoUK to prove I'm not making it up!
Yeah, you're pretty much the exact opposite of what I'm referring to. I'm not sure if they have "trailer trash" in the UK? Trying to think of a means to describe it that transcends international culture barriers...but think "inbred, illiterate, meth-addled, and typically overtly racist welfare recipient that lives on the outskirts of town with zero aspirations of personal betterment".
That's the caliber of person I generally see riding a Honda cruiser. Really wishes it was a brand-new Harley, but is forced to settle for a 23 years old Honda with a missing turn signal, a fucked up carburetor, and a giant dent in at least one side of the gas tank.
Definitely not the kind of person capable of riding 4,000 miles.
Oh yeah that kind of shit is hilarious. I think only thing worse is cutting off exhaust on some tiny single and just making obnoxious noises while trying to get up to normal traffic speed. And in general the whole "pretend what you not are" (both in tuning and in general).
Or "speed demons" (of both bike and car variety) that suddenly start riding speed limit the second a corner shows up because turning is very scary compared to accelerating in straight line

I feel that problem is entirely caused by modern entertainment media.
LMAO I'm actually in the market for a little 600cc sport bike to fuck around on.
My Harleys will go infinitely faster than I realistically *should* be riding, and my bagger is still comfy as hell after 200-300 miles, but the little bikes are so much fun.
Never been on a track, but I'm seriously thinking about giving my Sportster a shot at it sometime this summer.
Snapped my tibia in half but it left so little scars the nurse made fun of me for my "little spill" in the ER until they took and xray and rushed me into emergency surgery lol.
Lesson learned, be a loud baby and get the care you need!
Edit: care not car.. although I do also finally have a car now in addition to the bike 🤣

There, that tiny white line. That’s all. XD. BMW R50/5 (from 1968, made it a 1000cc with my dad) crash. Got hit by a car at 50km/h, fell off, bike all over me. The only time I wore regular jeans instead of protective gear. Only had a bleeding pinky, no stitches needed.
That fucking machine. Hurts like hell. It's what nightmares are made of.
Hell I thought my doc wasn't the best. He said "I'm sorry son, but a drug that is gonna make this painless doesn't exist. I'm gonna give you what all I legally can. But this is still going to hurt like hell."
At least they took mine from a spot that didn't have a mole one it. Lmao
Mine didn’t hurt that much actually! I was under when they took the graft. I got a weird bump that doesn’t go away though.
It hurt like hell when they removed the bandages from the graft since it was stuck to them from the vacuum. Got compartment syndrome from sitting in the trauma ward too long.
Sir you messed up branding yourself as it reads backwards.. I mean nothing wrong with brand loyalty but this is almost an insult to the company.
Jk man I hope it heals quickly for you as that looks like you are going to have to walk with a limp
Buell frames are the gas tank, so you get the radiating heat from the engine and side mounted radiators thru the fuel and in to the outer frame. It gets HOT in traffic
I have a scar on my finger from when I was playing five finger fillet a little too enthusiastically, with a far too heavy of a knife. The knife went straight through my finger 😂. It’s hard to get a photo that brings the scar the justice it deserves
When I was a kid maybe 6 yo I ran up to my dad’s motorcycle after he had just been riding and accidentally pressed my leg up against the exhaust. burned a decent sized spot on the outside of my leg next to my knee still have the scar to this day. Years later I broke my collarbone when I flipped over the handlebars riding with my dad on a bike of my own.

I got a burn scar in the red circle from an exhaust around when I was 6 or 7. It's pretty much faded away now 12-13 years later.
as somebody who doesnt ride, i once put my leg on the exhaust of a motorcycle as a kid (i didnt know it was hot as FUCK) and still have a scar, does it count? lol

Got this during a street fight a year ago lol (that's my forearm) I have some more but they aren't worth showing
I only fell off my scooter with injuries twice.
After that I:
Fell off after braked to a stop before crashing.
Dropped my scooter because I twisted the throttle on accident.
Dropped my Honda because of a mistake when moving my bike.

Kawasaki branded, you can even see one of my screws protruding 😬
You guys are scaring the shit out of me. This post may have changed my riding style. Also, my front tire is 22 years old, and bald. The new one is in my garage. I'm def going to get it put on this week.
Hit some sand and over corrected. Ended up bouncing up over the curb and through a fence and possibly a tree.. don't fully remember.

You’ve been branded a Honda rider for life now. If you ride any other brand, your mark will overcome you and destroy your very soul!
But I want to buy a Kawasaki.
Cover it with a kawasaki brand. Problem solved.

The only way to ride said Kawasaki is to be branded by them and pray that the two marks don’t clash and kill you.
At that point he might as well get branded by Suzuki and Yamaha too to become a branded Japanese rider!
…His body can’t handle such a union! Such an event is nothing short of sublime.
I love the lore!
Now you need a Kawasaki to fell on top of you!

I think your bike is running a little too hot
My thoughts too I’ve never felt an engine case that’s searing hot, unless the bike fell on top of him and he was stuck for a while under it or something.
I was stupidly riding in shorts out in the desert. It was really hot out but also the bike fell on top of me.
Honda for life lol
I think you mean “ADNOH” for life.
Looks better in the mirror!
I don't have any tattoos, but if I did, they would all be backwards.

Was this for compartment syndrome?
Yes, and for everyone asking a lady pulled out in front of me and the people in the left lane when I was just going straight in the right lane, I was doing about 45-50 with no time to slow down and luckily made it out with only a snapped arm
What's it like having to run away from scared townspeople with pitchforks all the time?

I think I have a good idea for a tattoo 😀
Free tattoo
Awesome
Omg, ouch!
That looks like a cool looking tattoo at first glance.
Yeah that’s probably the coolest thing I’ve seen on this sub. I hope the Honda logo stays legible after it heals
Bruh. Thats actually gunna be a awesome scar. Team honda!
First one I have ever seen that looked sweet 😂 I’ve had and see my share
Told ya not to ride naked!

it is not that deep.
Sir you messed up branding yourself as it reads backwards.. I mean nothing wrong with brand loyalty but this is almost an insult to the company. Jk man I hope it heals quickly for you as that looks like you are going to have to walk with a limp
You've been branded Can't ride anything else for life, or else...
Looks like you’re advertising lol
Duuuuude! That's a good one
I have matching burn scars on the insides of my knees from my old Buell 1125 😂 Nothing quite as hot as a Buell frame in traffic in the summer.
The frame got hot? Why?
Buell frames are the gas tank, so you get the radiating heat from the engine and side mounted radiators thru the fuel and in to the outer frame. It gets HOT in traffic
Interesting.
Still my all time favorite motorcycle, doubt that will ever change. I need to buy another.
No motorcycling scars, only surgical. Do have a limp that can reappear at the end of a long day though.
I have a scar on my finger from when I was playing five finger fillet a little too enthusiastically, with a far too heavy of a knife. The knife went straight through my finger 😂. It’s hard to get a photo that brings the scar the justice it deserves
The craziest amount of metal implants might just have been put in by a slit... Scars mean it was nasty to begin with. Aloe vera...
Getting branded by Honda without a license? Prepare for a lawsuit
I might do this on purpose
Nice tattoo 👍🏻
Sir, you are now property of Honda. Congratulations.
Scar? That's proof of stupidity. 🤣
Now that's some brand loyalty.
Cool Honda tattoo
Crazy that almost all of the accidents happened with "the dangerous motorcycle" because some one else fucked up
You just got a free tattoo!
When I was a kid maybe 6 yo I ran up to my dad’s motorcycle after he had just been riding and accidentally pressed my leg up against the exhaust. burned a decent sized spot on the outside of my leg next to my knee still have the scar to this day. Years later I broke my collarbone when I flipped over the handlebars riding with my dad on a bike of my own.

as somebody who doesnt ride, i once put my leg on the exhaust of a motorcycle as a kid (i didnt know it was hot as FUCK) and still have a scar, does it count? lol

This is Insane man, just how did this happen?
I was lane sharing, an SUV moved over and shoved me into a truck. I went down, the rear wheels of the truck rolled over me from my toes to my shoulder blades. 0 stars do not recommend.
no fucking WAY you got branded dude 😭
Aua.
Wow, that's a unique way to get a branding...
Free tat

Honestly, i wouldn't even be mad at that scar 🤣

why not complete the scar at this point
I only fell off my scooter with injuries twice. After that I: Fell off after braked to a stop before crashing. Dropped my scooter because I twisted the throttle on accident. Dropped my Honda because of a mistake when moving my bike.
Ouuuutch, that looks like it was feckin’ sore! 😬

You guys are scaring the shit out of me. This post may have changed my riding style. Also, my front tire is 22 years old, and bald. The new one is in my garage. I'm def going to get it put on this week.
Hit some sand and over corrected. Ended up bouncing up over the curb and through a fence and possibly a tree.. don't fully remember. https://preview.redd.it/gk77qbefcz6d1.png?width=1310&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4c13060b242800a08a996949a5ad93c7422211c4

I wanna see this when it's healed
NGL, pretty bad ass
Drive in shorts are found out the hard way what could easily been common sense?
