broken! thanks to my quad, not running

[300EXrider02]

early today I was looking at my quad, in a gaze with my friends, i got up and tried to wipe some rain drop stains off the seat...well te seat is dry and i tried rubbing them off with my hand and fingures....well, when i did, my right middle finger buckled, and snapped right before my eyes, the little top joint under your fingurnail just broke, well i thought it was dislocated, becasue it was locked in the down position, but went to the E.R. and the took an x-ray, then say there was a pice totally broken off, i have to have surgery tommaro, have a pin put in my fingure, then my ligement stiched up, then my fingure, all becasue of me rubbing my seat...

it was funny as hell to hear a crack then look at my bent fingure, but it hurt like a mofo, so im type right now with one hand and another fingure

i might add this the same day my dad dropped off the dirt for my 60 ft table i am building, and now i have to have a splint on my fingure for 4-6 or more weeks...
what do you guys think i should do? ride anyway? take it easy? or try my best to deal with it, its my middle fingure, which contorls the front brake:(

[Honda4trax250x]

wow! just from rubbing a seat?!?!?!?! thats messed up:eek2:

[AtvMxRider]

:ermm:WTF:huh

[ktMan]

i think you should be drinking some more milk to get those bones stronger lol:D

[Ryan]

Light weight :p .

[nacs400ex]

LOL, sorry to laugh but thats hilarious, I wouldnt tell too many people about that one. What happen to you, Oh I was wiping the rain drops off my seat and broke my finger. Make it sound like you did something really bad lol.

[Chef]

Yea, say you jumped, and you were so high, that your finger hit a tree branch as you were flipping off the person below you. That'll work.:o :D

["BLAHH"300!!]

that's not right man.
,,i'd so get checked out.
there's a condition where your bone's get weak, old people get it, and it's usually what couses them to break a hip.

i wonder what would have happen if you had fallen off the seat.


get all worked up:devil


oh yeah....F.I.N.G.E.R.
typing with one hand, i know, but you did it 4 or 5 times.
no flames.

[muff]

wow that sure blows


I broke my right ring finger knuckle and still rode but lookin back on it i wish i had jsut waited til it was healed, its to easy for somethin to get screwed up, I'd rather it heal right the first time instead of running into problems later on

[300EXrider02]

ya it was dumb, but i drink my milk:o, and my bones are real strong, first bone to break on me, the thing was that it was such great force of my trying to wipe it off that my finger slipped and all that force didn't help, and snaped, bone sticks up and that is no good...was hilarious i must say:p

dont worry i got a story worked out;)

the doc said if this doesnt heal right it will never be the same, so i guess i will take it easy, and might just sell the ex, and buy a 400 in the time i have:D

[yellowex01]

Dont do anything let it heal. Heres why. A guy I know broke his thumb, went back to the doc to get the cast off his hand. Healed crooked. Doc says look the other way, buddy says why, Doc says you dont want to know. Buddy looks the other way Doc pulls out a rubber mallet and smashes buddys hand on table re-breaking the thumb.:)

Sounds really painful:eek: :( Sorry about the thumb 300EXrider02 but thats a funny story:p

[batgeek]

dont rub the seat! that'll learn ya! :D

[NateLHonda]

that really sucks, must of really hurt.

When i broke my wrist the doctor straightened it and put the cast on then i had to get an Xray to see if it was straight enough and if it wasnt he would have to take off my cast, brake it and sraighten it again. It reeaaallly hurt gettin it sraight.
That was about 5 months ago. I think i used my arm too much when i had my cast on, now my arm is bent.:ermm:

LMAO blahh300!
Maybe you had better keep a phone for 911 in the john, you seem to have trouble wiping things :D
Just pokin man. Sorry to hear about your finger, hope it gets better soon.

[300exTJjeeper]

I boke my pinky about 10 years ago and never put it into a cast, I used to be able to move it in many ways, never hurt, and it was normal, but it look a little bigger than my other pinky. And now recently I broke it again landed from a jump on the quad. I guess it's rebroke because can't move it very well,, but still can. so I just use tape for the time being until it's healed again. and maybe I can do more stuff to it. hahahahaha

[Dune Surfer]

Sound like that seat kicked your arse:eek: Sorry about your finger. Kinda funny that we can ride the piss out of our quads, crash and nothing happens and you break a finger rubbing your seat. Are you sure it was your seat you were rubbing:huh

[300exTJjeeper]

:eek: :eek: :eek:

[300EXrider02]

yes:p

well now the doc calls and says i have to wait till 10:40 tommaro, I hope it goes well and I get the splint or whatever off my finger in less than 4 weeks

[kawasaki_ridah]

:huh rubbing rain drops off your seat! that seat has to be strong, dont rub so hard

I broke my thumb in my last big crash - I landed sideways off a huge table 5th gear pinned.....flipped a bunch of times, etc. Got my legs under me, put my quad back up on all 4's, got on and went to start it....it wouldn't start. I couldn't figure out what was wrong...I looked at my hand, and every time I'd push on the ignition switch, my thumb would bend completely backwards at the top joint.....was wierd. I couldn't feel a thing - I just kept thinking how wierd and how i needed to get going to finish my race.......(I raced the second moto that day and got 3rd, BTW! heheheheh)

Turns out I broke it good - but i never did more than splint it up myself. Kept riding, just wrapped it really good before I rode, so it wouldn't go back like that again under pressure. 3 months later, it's not sore anymore unless I put pressure on it, but I definately do not have full range of motion!

Lesson!- do what you gotta do to get your finger normal - we got alot of digits, but it's a pain when even one of them doesn't work right! ;) I probably shoulda spend the money to have it looked at better and fixed the right way, but at the time it didn't seem too important. So do what the doctor tells you and you'll heal up quick!:D

[phatswinn]

thats how it goes.. i fell off my heelys and broke my left arm in 3 places, one of bones came right out of my skin, its just how ya bend it or fall on it
