Riding the yamaha..
Just another one of those reminders that riding is a dangerous pastime. While the EC300 was waiting for some new reed petals I took the 250F out for a weekend. It was singing along nicely sticking along with the 450's until one decided to launch a log out the back end..
Result shown below.. Stick impacted the chin bar, shattered and sent a shard through some rubber, into some foam, and finally ended up leaving a 5cm chunk in my neck/under my chin.. It was a steady ride out with the splinter still in situ and the helmet strapped on a mates back.
