Some bastard in an estate drove into the back of me at a junction today. It's a 'give way' point and you can't really see if anything's coming until you are right there because the road is at a funny angle, so I always stop completely just in case. The guy behind me kept on going, meh Rolling Eyes To be fair he pulled over and gave me his details so not a complete arse.

Not much damage I can see. Need a new rear mud guard. I think I need to have the bike checked over though because I wouldn't know what to look for re the frame etc. Anybody know a good place for bikes in Bristol that may or may not be Honda related???

Anyway, just thought I'd have a moan. Oh, and my jar of almond butter burst inside my tailpack over my change of clothes Thumbs Up Not a good day Crying or Very sad Laughing

You have broken the CB again?

Wink


The frame will probably be fine but you can check it easily by stripping the CB of all its easy to remove bits.

The fuel tank (1 bolt and disconnecting a fuel line) - 2 mins.

Side panels - 30 seconds (in total)

Seat (2 bolts) 1 minute.

Airboxes (3 bolts each) 3 minutes.

A haynes manual and a cheap socket set will do you good.

Unlucky mate, thats a right bummer, some twat hitting you up the arse. How stupid can people get? That CB frame looks similar to my MBX, same wheels as well.

Meyrick, you don't seem to have much good luck lately do you?

Shocked Laughing Nice one Laughing The guy who hit me was at least nice about it and followed me for a few miles to make sure I was ok, so I'm not going to go that far. Still think I'll have it checked over at his expense though.
