I have all the time in the world... But they (Beta) insisted on assembling the bike at their shop... Hope they do it right!
August 27, 201312 yr I have all the time in the world... But they (Beta) insisted on assembling the bike at their shop... Hope they do it right! Even though I personally believe they will do it right, I would still check it over when you receive the bike. They are human after all and could miss something, also gets you acquainted with the machine. Then fire it up and crash the heck out of it...............I mean ride like a champion!
August 28, 201312 yr Author Guys, i got good and bad news... in fact... its mostly bad news .... I was working on the training course obstacles when i had an accident... i was chopping a couple 44 gallon barrels...to make the tractor tyre platforms stiffer... i cutted the first one, no prob...but when i tried to cut the second... DISASTER..... That second drum contained some kind of dried barnish that when heated produced an explosive gas... it blew up right on me... it was like a flash, i dropped the grinder, tried to run and in the first step i made... BOOM! A small video (sorry in spanish) and some pics will be more ilustrative... The aftermath.... Recovery aids from my Mom, Dad, Uncles
August 28, 201312 yr I would say ya got a bit lucky with the BOOM! It could have turned out much worse. Heal up quick, follow the doc instructions, burns need to be cared for properly...............I know from experience, but my burn was a smaller area, Just on my hand.
August 28, 201312 yr Hey bud.....man thats bad luck. As zippy said: you are dam lucky. Hope you get fixed up soon. Let us all learn from this ballsup. You havent even got your bike yet and trials is already hurting you Hows your bike coming along, any news?
August 28, 201312 yr Author No news about the bike... I dont want to be calling them everyday... No motivation to have it sitting in my livingroom i cant use it now!!! But hey.... healed a lot overnight... i got a bad spot beteenn my fingers and another not as bad in my neck.... I bet ill be slicing barrells again in a couple weeks
August 28, 201312 yr I reccon you finish cutting the one that blew you up:) I doubt itll explode twice Phone those punks about your bike, id bug them untill it was in my guarage. Ps: in that one pic, I thought your fingers got blown off, now that would make riding trials awkward to say the least.

Yeh but when he's buggin and phoning them, they aren't working working on the bike, so if he leaves them to it, the sooner his bike will be ready, you know. I ain't botherred though
August 30, 201312 yr Author About the bike, i couldn resist and phoned my friend today... Hes going to check how is the build going next week, so maybe....mayyybeeee...it will be ready. About my accident injuried... They are healing well, doesnt hurt or bothers me at all.... The ****iest part is my hand in between my fingers, real deep and delicate, must take care of that to avoid infections but its supposed to be OK in 2 or 3 weeks... My neck is healing OK... not too deep... and my face shows darker coloration and skin is falling off but its just cosmetic. For the clinically interested or for the morbid users, some pics of the progression.... It wont be comfortable to clutch in for a while i guess....
