I forgot about this happening, found it while I was going through some old pictures. From now on, you'll constantly have this mental picture in your head when you think about jumping a Tri-Z :lol:

And this is what happens when one boot hits the ground when sliding off a peg when jumping a trike. (same would happen if peg snaps)

It is a good thing I keep at least two point of contact. If I want to fly, I will get in an air plane.

Thats why I have always changed out my R pegs to the newer 86R pegs as they changed the design to thicker and stronger ones. That would not be cool on a double or something.......ouch!

Rick, I saw that pic and was meaning to ask you about it. Anyone roll you, or did you wipeout on your own?

Just road rashed or bruised up too?

Either way it looks painful.

The 350X pegs didn't break, my dumbarse only rides with sh1tkickers instead of proper riding gear.

Stupid hurts.

Few years back my left foot slipped off and caught my leg under the wheel,,, 40 some stiches later two rows deep right behind my knee.. and then short after i shattered the left side of my face on a tree... since then ive slowed down and ive been alittle more causious....:rolleyes:

Dammit!

I got side swiped at Smith. Not sure how th whole wreck went. Not sure if the bike did that or the ground. I think I was out for a few seconds. It bruised up pretty bad. Still have a few scabs left. Also had a nasty cut/hole under my left armpit and real bad bruising, Same wounds down the inside of my left arm and a real big softball sized bruise on the back of my right leg. I'm healed for the most part now. Can't wait to race again.

Funny thing, when I saw that pic I thought you were the guy that rolled down devil's backbone at TF08 - he had the same type of roadrash!!

How was that anyhow?? :wondering

do they make a electric start upgrade for them so you don't have to kick start it? (even pull start would be easier i think)

They were referring to another member's super high quality foot pegs for a Tri-Z. Things could be used as weapons. Sturdy and sharp.

Most damage comes to the leg when the peg breaks (Or when some fools like me have their boot slip off the peg while doubling a jump). The Tri-Z is known for that happening.
