    Sorry to hear about the accident, hopefully you'll be fighting (and riding) fit in no time and another bike will come your way soon......ask the universe, they might just answer

    Arrow Glad your OK mate.

    Most of us have ridden beyond our abilities at some stage mate. I started when I was eight, apparently

    Glad to hear your all good. (in all respects anyway)
    Dont worry about the bike. You'll get another one.
    Go through what happened in your mind, and try to find out where you went wrong. Then Learn from it. Unfortunatly the only way to learn is by making mistakes.
    Lax out for the time being!

    Sorry to hear about this SJ. I'm glad *you* didn't get hurt too bad, that's the main thing!

    Sounds like you've learned a good lesson and with a new bike on the horizon you'll be 'itching' to get back out there once you've all healed up!! Get well soon.

    Cool

    Shit glad you are ok Str8jacket....
    And there is another GN250 bike waiting for you to buy down in Wellington...
    and I do belive it has your name on it already. (well after 10th Sept)

    Rest up and heal well.... Use 'arnica cream' or the 'arinca tablets' that will help the bruising.

    So that explains why Jazbug was looking for another bike to ride when she gets back to NZ to do her full license on.

    Bummer, I stacked my CBR after not having it too long. I didnt even hesitate about getting a new bike! Only way to be about it.

    Try and get some track time, you will love it and learn shit loads!

    Hi Str8 Jacket. Sorry to hear about your crash and your bike but like everyone says, at least you were not hurt too badly and had some good people around at the time to help out.

    Hope you feel better soon and maybe you can use this free time to peruse the local bike shops for anything that takes your fancy!

    nasty!!! pity about the bike but good for you that
    a] you walked away from it and
    b] you're prepared to take responsibility for it

    ohhhhh - and don't worry - i do daft stuff ALL the time - the trick is to avoid doing the same daft thing twice!!

    Bugger about your crash but the fact that you can walk away from it and laugh about is a good thing.
    hope you're out there again soon.
    Cheers
