i was Ridin my kx 125 around with some friends and i was comin up to a jump and it hit the power band which i wasnt exspecting becuz it usually doesnt have a mean powerband it threw me on my seat and i was doin about 35 the suspension bounced me back up i hit my nose on the bars and landed and went up again did a superman hit my nuts on the seat and hit my neck on the bars and i couldnt breath....After i got up my nose was bleading really bad my throat hurt and my bike had some bad bent bars. after all was done and my friends made jokes about it it was a fun day. Has anyone else ever hit the power band and done something that hurt yourself?

the first time crazy canadian rode my r he hit the powerband just as he went from dirt road to pavement it almost threw him off the back. he lost grip on his left hand and his right hand pulled the bars and he almost went into the ditch in 5th gear. he just barely got it slowed and turned away from the ditch
