I had opportunity to ride this Sporter1200, yesterday. On a rescue mission.
A long time friends son, that we have known since he was a baby (but havent seen in a few years), just got his first bike this spring.
Crashed his foot (and not bike apparently) into a parked truck on a dark street there (or that is his story). Stopped a few houses later, and fell over, with his foot (tennis shoes) pointing in wrong direction, under the bike.
(maybe that is what happened, or I suspect could be maybe something with foot/leg falling off the forward controls, or loosing control at speed and putting out foot......)
They asked if I could ride bike to his house about 25 miles away. Picture when I meet them there at the scene, a few hours after release from hospital.
Ah, unfamiliar bike, fairly loud exhaust, forward controls on bike that just has crashed.
Ah, I would prefer to trailer it.
Friend and I Pushed it up on my trailer so didnt even have to start it.
By the time we were unloading at son's house, the son said the "pain blockers must be starting to wear off", and he wasnt smiling as much as this picture.
