i was t boned on sun last
a car exited at speed out of a service station to beat the on coming traffic
and clocked me at about 25mph
he caught the engine square on which saved me,i managed to jump clear
of the bike,
i was unhurt in the incident
tomorrow the bike is getting a once over in my local bmw garage
so far both rocker covers are f******************ed {a mid stamer}
front mug guard & the tank stop but because it is part of the frame i feel
they will write the bike off i hope not
but generally when there is any damage to the frame the insurance take
a dim view of this
i will keep you posted of the out come

i got good news today that my bike is to repaired at a cost of E 3409.88
the guy who crocked me now has changed his story in relation the the accident,so looks like its down to the insurance company to sort things out. i hope it don't effect my no claims bonus. the f###########er should be glad he is dealing with just metal upon metal and not a death
on his conscience ( rant over )
hopefully i will be on the road as soon as possible,
