Jay Leno Says He Won’t Stop Riding Motorcycles Despite Shattering Bones In Crash

Jay Leno isn’t letting a couple of damaged bones stop him from returning on his bike … informing us he’s got no strategies to give up riding despite a current frightening mishap.

Jay informs TMZ … everybody’s informing him to stop riding motorcycles, however “when you’re 72, crashing a motorcycle is better than slipping in a walk-in bathtub.”

Jay informs us he still intends on riding motorcycles despite the mishap, since … “Once men get past the age of 40 you can’t teach them anything!”

The television host says he didn’t even understand how severely hurt he sought flying off his bike when he was clotheslined by an unmarked wire extending throughout a parking area … he says he in fact drove himself to the medical professional, where he was detected with damaged bones.

As for the bike, Jay says it kept pursuing he was knocked off … crashing into a structure. He informs us the bike is at his well-known Burbank garage and he intends on repairing it.
