    It happened

    Well - it happened - the high side from hell - landed 10 metres from the bike can't remember a bloody thing. 

    6 hours in hospital for CT scans etc.........extremely groggy and plainly lucky to be alive in all honesty..........

    Game over for me - thanks all

    Oh dude. That is ALL bad news. So sorry to hear that Wkid, I guess the bike is a complete loss after a high side. At least you're not in hospital now for your troubles. Bummer. I've crashed on the road and I remember the pain. My thoughts are with ya.

    Sorry to hear that wkid, as the saying goes "SHIT HAPPENS", but dammit, it is not supposed to happen to us bikers!
    Speedy recovery mate, is the bike still salvagable?

    Sorry to hear about that Wkid.

    All the best for a quick recovery and a fast insurance payout!

    Looks like that 04 R1 is looking a bit more achievable now maybe...

    you are getting back on the horse again, aren't you?
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    That sucks alright.

    After a 10 metre highside you must be singing the praises of a good quality back protector?
