    Speed Bump

    Went over a speed bump not paying much attention to it. Big mistake. Tire got over just fine, fender hit then oil cooler. The next thing I new I was on the ground. miner spill but big $$$ Harleys estimate is for 6k Sure glad I have insurance. My pride was the only thing injured on me. My head hit hard but I had a bucket on. You never know some times it's the little things that get you.

    The main thing is that you are ok. Pride heals faster then bones. Stay safe

    sorry for yer spill, glad you made out ok, machines are less painful to repair than body parts.
    They call em "speed" bumps for a reason, you should have been going faster! At least that's how my old lady drives her vehicle over em.

    It was in a parking lot. I have had my pipes hit but never anything like this.
