I could'a used one of those in '82. Crashed my brand new motorcycle and had to have extensive back surgery.

I was smarter than that. I crashed an old motorcycle and only wrecked my knee. (Of course ten years later, some twit in an Olds '98 rear-ended my Chevette at an intersection, and there went my other knee, my neck, my back, and scads of other "less important" bone-cartilage junctions. Argh...)

Ouch!

Veteran myself of an encounter on my '85 NightHawk and a car ... minor, non-life threatening injuries involving a fractured pelvis ...
