Raven 250 crash
I'm writing this thread to inform you of an accident I was in today on my 2023 Raven 250. I was riding with no gear other than a helmet, going 55 MPH on a main road. I noticed shortly into my ride a rattling noise and didn't think much of it. I rode a few miles after first hearing the noise and was thrown off the bike. I sustained significant injury to myself. I have road rash on nearly every part of me and have a fractured glenoid cavity on my scapula. This accident was caused by the swing arm bolt coming out, causing the back end to get thrown out to the side. I would like to remind you of the importance of wearing gear at all times, no matter how short the ride is. I'm lucky to be alive at 19 years old with such a great accident. I will let this be a lesson to me and you on how important it is to wear gear and inspect your bike before each ride. I have attached a picture of the bike a few minutes after the crash. Please ride safely!
