Oooopsie! I crashed my CBR!

Thanks once again people! Very Happy

The latest is....

BIKE:
....The bike is slowly recovering. New rearset is on, so I now have gears again ! \o/ ...which helps! Smile

....And hopefully i can borrow a 30mm spanner off some gulliable unsuspecting sod (i.e .... G ! ) in the next few days, so that I can put my new handlebar on. Smile

Then, were pretty much vaguely 'rideable' again!

....Although I have yet to start the engine since the crash.... I'm too scared to! Confused

....I think i'll wait until G comes round, so at least then i'll have a shoulder to cry on if all goes wrong! Smile

ME:
I am also 'slowly' recovering. ...Although i still cant walk properly....and i cant use my left arm much....
But hey!...who needs arms and legs! Smile

As long as i can still type on the keyboard, thats fine! Smile

MONEY:
Bank balance is in crisis. Will probably never recover again. Sad

Oh well, nevermind ...I'm sure thats what student loans are for! Smile

So anyway, basically....all is cool! Cool

Unfortunately £500 isnt going to buy a 400 + insurance, selling the old bike and i might be able 2 afford a 400 but not insurance as well. Crying or Very sad

The left bar completely snapped Confused

...although the bike now is recovering well, and is nearly back on the road once again! Smile

...with a big thankyou going to G, for letting me borrow his 'strength', so that i could undo my topyolk nut! Very Happy

Thanks G!

dean in both pics you can see that the bar is snapped, it looks like it is attached in the 2nd picture, but that is actually the fork leg you can see, not the handlebars!
