Do YOU pre-ride check over

Had i done so might have just
seen my front left top ball joint
bout to pop out. Instead found it
out at 50mph not a good experience
car just wants to head for dyke bottom
Top pinch bolt had bent and become loose
letting ball joint do as it liked!
CHECK YOURS IN THE MORNING

Change of underwear pushed the
joint back in went off home very steady!
Cars fine had to do trackin it had upset that.
But always pull on the top arms before
goin off now, god knows how long it had
been loose n to think how fast i have been.
Good thing it was left side been right wud

sounds like you were very very lucky!

i've only been out in mine 3 times sinse it passed test but each time i've stopped i've given anything steering wise a good pull and had a quick look over everything in sight! think i'll continue to do so in future!
