Ali - hardest crasher of Desmo Due 2005?

Just been to collect my bike from having it's dyno runs. As well as having two wheels with flat spots in and a cracked headstock, it's had a hit so hard it's bent the top of one of the coils
Ali, you're a crashing legend, never seen a bent coil before LOL

And no, Dave Reilly scoops that award. When he crashed at Snet my missus was so sure he'd bought the farm she burst into tears. Mine were all minor tumbles by comparison

The cracked h/stock was probably caused by whatever did the damage to the forks (a head-on with something I'd guess), the front wheel was bought from frank (iconic 944) like that, and the coil was probably bent because I will of hit it with a hammer. I hit everthing with a hammer...

Regardless, she had two top three finishes which means really bent bikes suit loonies!
