How on earth do you sustain life-threatening injuries in a parking lot!!

Was he doing wheelies? Going up a ramp and over ten parked cars? That's a helluva test ride!![8D]

Yup, most likely head injury. Always wear that helmet, well if you want to bounce on your head and live anyhow.

The name of the shop sounds like a Metric shop, so the chances that something stupid was going on has increased. When I wheeled out of the dealer (HD) with my new bike I took thing so slow that I was almost going backwards. The thought of dropping a new bike at the HD dealer takes all the "Hay, watch me" right out of your thoughts. The thought of starting a fire in the dumpsters to draw everyones attention, so I could seek out crossed my mind.

I know how you felt. There was a bout a half a dozen people (owner, salesrep, service manager, etc) watching as I rode off.
I would have hated to drop my bike with all that audience, much less done something dumb enough to get me killed.[sm=exactly.gif]

Powersports shop says it all!

Had to be a metric shop.

Maybe dude didn't conquer the clutch throttle thing yet.
