Took the Beast out, then myself
Well a tough day out at the farm today, had fun riding in the woods but pulled a few too many wheelies and the last one bit me, i have popped my shoulder out a few times before and the lame bail at the end of this vid did it to me again, my boot got stuck in the rear grab bar and i fell kinda funny, it popped right back in with a slight push from underneath but it hurts like hell, i have a feeling i won't be riding for a bit. Enjoy my pain....

My kids were watching you ride and said "oooh he's a good rider.."
Then they went, "Hey! He's riding on his knee he's going to fall!" 8O Sorry 'bout the wipeout chap but it looks like you were havin fun up to that point! |

nice video, did you forget to tap the rear brake to bring the front end down ?
exhaust sounds good, but i think you need some larger tires atleast on the rear |

Hope you heal up Wayne. Glad it wasn't a more severe injury. BTW, your Beast looks and sounds great! You're mastering the art of the slow wheelie.

Well i know my boot must have got stuck in the rear grab bar as that same thing happened to me a few times that day where i would end up just walking behind the quad as it went vertical, and also dumba$$ me had the wrong knee up so tapping the rear brake was a no go on that one.
