Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Would bring a tear to a glass eye seeing an RR in such a state.

How are you though TIN? Doesnt look like something you could walk away from (in too strait a line anyway).

Oh yeah, mucho kudos and Karma

for Maurice for helping me wheel the thing home. Thumbs Up

Basically, going along straight-ish road, lots of parked cars on my side of the road, but still plenty of room for 2 cars (so definately for a bike and a car) and I'm on my side of the road...approach junction on the left, only going 30-40 ish (I know the road, and I'm not an idiot). See Fiesta waiting to pull out, but not pulling out, so I carry on going. As I pass the front of the car - BOOOOM! T-Bone-age.

I allegedly went flying about 25 metres along the road (not in a single bound) whilst avoiding my head and back (must've been all those years of watching Jackie Chan). Knees are f*cked, but nothing broken...but starting to get major pains in parts of my hands and shoulders.

Not looking forward to the morning.

The hospital won't give me any crutches - does anyone know where I can borrow one from?

Oh well as long as Mr or Ms Fiesta is insured you'll get a spangly new bike. Praying

Sounds like a similar thing to me except from the other side :S

They are just blind idiots who have no consideration for bikes just big box things.

Sorry to hear it. Any witnesses?

Well I can't comment on the outcome but they have 3 months to make a decision. They got abck to me after 2 months and 29 days :S

Were there any witnesses? if not then they'll find you innocent. Same thing happened to my dad (except he was the fiesta driver) the woman (in your position) that took the front of his car off was speeding but my dad still got done for not looking. I wouldn't worry you are not at fault the woman is.

If you could, that would be very nice mate. But if you can spare a few minutes to post it (I only need one), then I'd definately reimburse the costs etc...maybe in money. Laughing

Posting wouldn't be a problem at all mate - don't think it would cost much - I'll go hunt for a large box or something to put it in and take it to the local depo for you.

You wana PM me your address?

Shit! Sorry to hear about that TiN {{}}

If a driver pulls out of a side road into you, they are ALWAYS at fault.

I just got my compo through from when I got T-Boned... but it did take nearly 2 years to get to me Sad

but the guy was uninsured so I guess I was loucky to get anything at all - but I did Thumbs Up

Hope you get it all sorted soon!

Take some nice strong painkillers!

Shit Tin that looks bad. Glad you are reasonably okay and hope everything turns out okay. It sounds like there is no way you can be found to be at fault and if the driver of the fiesta was all apologetic it sounds like she knows she did wrong and will probably accept liability. Praying

Get well soon mate.

Hi,

Bad luck mate. Just one question, having just seen your new avatar, does this mean the bike's a write off

Anyway, sorry to hear about this. It seems that there has been a boom in crashes on here recently Sad

Cheers,

Will
