I bought my Kat a few weeks ago and then waited for all the gear to come in from eBay. Then I tried to ride it last week but my battery had died.
I charged the battery and rode it just now.
I took a trainer course a year ago and had forgotten most of the stuff learned. I just reread the books they had given.
I forgot how to control the clutch. I rode around the neborhood and then went onto the street at 11:30 at night to avoid heavy traffic. It was easy for me to go striaght and turn. I need to work on my lane position and be more aware of my sourroundings.
Each time I tried a to do a U on a 4 lane road with no medium, I almost hit the curb. The 3rd time I tried to do a U, I couldn't make it and hit the curb on the side going slow. I dropped the bike and don't remember if I fell down or not, but I got up quick is all I can remember.
I tried to lift the bike up right, but it was very heavy, it took me a few minutes to get it up. I noticed there was a liquad leakage (most likely gas) after I had lifted it up. There was a foot sized circle on the road.
I was afrid to try to turn it on but did it anyways and rode home.
I am ok except for a scrach on my hand and a very sore leg for trying to lift it.
It doesn't seem there was a lot of damage to the bike. Some scratches that I don't care. I am concerned with the leakage. Is that normal?
I will check it more tomorrow.
