Mjoy4567 0 #1 May 21, 2014 Hey guys and girls, I'm Matt. New to these parts, have been lurking around for a few days now just reading posts and getting a feel for the forums. You could say I'm a long time reader first time poster. A little about myself, I'm from Sunshine Coast Australia and will be jumping at the toogoolawah dz as my home base. Currently doing my aff and on stage 2. I completed stage 1 just a little under 3 months ago (10 weeks) and was looking forward to doing 3 more the following weekend. On that Friday post jumps was riding my motorbike on my way home from work when the lady ahead decide she wasn't going to overtake the truck that was ahead anymore and hit the brakes. I collided with her and broke my collarbone. Which brings us to now (10 weeks on) I have clearance by my specialist and got stage 2 booked in for Sunday. Can't wait, the situation has been less then ideal as I would have liked to have it completed by now but can't help bad luck... Anyway I have dribbled on long enough. This will be the first of many posts and I look forward to reading more in the forums... Cheers, Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mjoy4567 0 #4 May 23, 2014 Hey, thanks for the replies... Haha yeah also had another skydiving mate who has been out for almost a year after stepping off his dirtbike and blew out his knee, several surgeries later and many months off he is still out but ready to make a comeback on approval... We did also joke around at the dz on stage 1 that if I made it to the drop zone that's (statistically) the most dangerous thing I would face today.

Mjoy4567 0 #6 May 24, 2014 Gsxr 600. Only left hand fairing damage all good and still ride it :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hollywood5581 0 #7 May 26, 2014 Love suzuki's I've owned 3. Hope the fairing gets worked out. There's some good deals on the internet for aftermarket. I've had some friends had to order those before. They fit real nice. OEM is just too expensive sometimes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
