Just watching the end of this movie then I'm on to it!
 
Billy, is that an X-ray of your upper left arm, the humerous, that got fractured? Looks nasty.
 
Bugger, I thought the horizonal bone was a disjointed clavical. Hope the joint was OK after all that mess.
 
the horizontal one is actually the top of the splint the ambos put on it, as for the joints seems i got lucky and did all the damage in the middle of the bone not near the ends
 
and before anyone asks yes my avatar is the result of a motorcycle accident

Had plenty of those over the years. Had a head on, on my KX500 with a TT350. Broken leg (Tib and fib). After three months with the plaster off I used to start the beast with my left leg from the top of a milk crate. Yep, within two months I broke it again. Was only out of plaster for 3 months that year with another stack thrown in.
 
that pic is the result of a zx6r v guard rail along the great ocean road, was very lucky went over the rail and if i had had slid 2 meters further and i was off the cliff. took 5 months to walk again and i was back on a bike within a week of walking
 
no plaster for that one, just a titanium rod from knee to hip and just shy of 50 stitches
 
I know the broken femur, popped the ball off the left side. Had a truck door slam shut on me while I was trying for a quick exit.

HAD a prick of a day!

Went to saw the last of the logs From last weekend today, and just nothing went right. first i found a bit of steel that had been lying hidden underneath the log, thankfully I only caught it enough to blunt the chain not wreck it. swapped chains, went back to cutting got pinched (only lightly, was easy enough to wedge it out) Had about half an hour of cutting left and the log decided to roll over right on my 660 with the 42 inch bar full depth right near the bottom of the cut, happened so fast I couldn't do anything but watch.

NOT HAPPY Jan!! and I got a saw knee from it as well.

damage to the saw seems like it is just the rear handle/fuel tank, bar, and it popped the ring around the rear clutch side av mount, (part of the crankcase casing.) hopefully that welds up alright.

all the rest seems ok and she didn't even stop running I actually had to turn it off.
 
That's a bastard Trav, not good at all.

I only fecked up a carby, sailing a little too close to the wind (actually some internal fuel circuits)

I knew i was close, so I touched the venturi with the corner of a file to check, instant new LS jet... doh !

Hopefully some JB Weld works, but I think yours needs a little more than that :(

No jb weld only a tig! got one of the best welders around going to look at it in the next couple of days.thankfully the damage is minimal and clean so it should be fixable. The guy looking at it is one of the guys who teaches people to weld. if he can,t weld it noone can. just dreading how much stihl are going to charge me for a new handle and tank.
