The accident follows the comedian suffering third-degree burns in a garage fire last November.
“But I’m OK,” Leno continued. “I’m OK. I’m working. I’m working this weekend.”
When sharing details of the recent accident, Leno explained that everything happened nine days prior, on Jan. 17. While testing a 1940 Indian motorcycle, he noticed the scent of leaking gas and pulled over. “So I turned down a side street and cut through a parking lot, and unbeknownst to me, some guy had a wire strung across the parking lot but with no flag hanging from it,” Leno recalled. “So, you know, I didn’t see it until it was too late. It just clotheslined me and, boom, knocked me off the bike. The bike kept going, and you know how that works out.”
Leno explained that he decided to keep mum on the accident after what transpired from his November hospitalization and recovery. “You know, after getting burned up, you get that one for free. After that, you’re Harrison Ford, crashing airplanes. You just want to keep your head down,” he said.Leno’s comments come amid
