Well, some people need to learn the hard way sometimes. My brother just got a new dirt bike over the weekend (Suzuki RMZ-250) and we took it out for a spin. Had just come back from down a long trail and decided to go check out a new one i had not been down. Get to the corner which is a sharp berm with pretty much all river stones (big flat, round rocks) and took a spill.
Was in 1st gear maybe going 5mph when i went down and all i did was bend the brake lever a little, not a scratch anywhere else (on the bike).
Walked away with a nice rash on my shoulder (no pic yet) and scraped my hand and forearm up. I was lucky to walk away with minor scrapes and bruises, had this been on pavement in the street would have been a trip to the hospital i bet.
