Don't even need to crash for ATGATT to be useful.

I usually just straddle the bike to back it out of a parking lot, but for some reason I had to get off and walk it out. Annoyingly, my boot slipped on oil or something and I almost fell, but I managed to keep the bike up.

No worries, just rode home, but when I checked my riding pants, they were completely melted through (and the knee armor was partially melted through). I didn't even feel it at the time, but my leg must've pressed against the pipe. Now I'm royally ticked off at having to buy another pair of pants, but I guess it's still way better than a burnt shin.

Gosh...when I read you'd ruined your pants...I thought you had had a different type of accident! :laughing:


Glad your ok and the bike didn't go down.

Don't be too upset about the pants. They've done their job.

Peace.
