Old Steve had an off

Best of luck with the shoulder. The taxi driver could be nominated for the Nobel Prize for literature, his explanation is a work of fiction.

Glad the bike side of thing is working out Steve, As for the bloody taxi driver, never trust em, He's injured you, gone away without a word and expects to get away with it. Good Job he didn't. As for the injuries, get em sorted properly, don't let no Doc tell you it can't be, make that ACC Levy work fro you for a change.
Brmm brmmm is Ok, proper motor noise along with hand and eyes working controls is better, looking forward to seeing you out and about again.
Your thread was a good one, don't be discouraged by the nay sayers, some of them mean well, the others are not worth worrying about.

Well, I've had an MRI (four weeks after the accident) and having another review in a week or so to see if I need corrective surgery. The Police have also located the taxi driver who said he did stop, came up to me and touched my shoulder and asked me how I was, and when I didn't answer turned around and left. The Police have viewed his taxi camera files and are charging him with careless driving causing injury and leaving the scene of an accident - they maintain there is no evidence of him coming up to me, and leaving after no response wouldn't have been acceptable anyway.

Youi are paying out, excess $410, but are also making a lump sum $500 payment for replacement bike gear (new boots, jacket and helmet visor). The Police are adding the excess to the reparations to be paid by the taxi driver is he is convicted, plus a little bit more for replacement costs above the Youi $500.

Still a bit sore in the right shoulder, can't raise my upper arm above the horizontal so am looking forward to the specialist seeing the MRI. Guess I'll have the bike back before I'm able to ride it, will just go down into the garage and sit on it and go brmm brmm.

Other than the pain, sounds like as good an outcome as you can expect.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery back to riding

Speedy recovery, good luck with the shoulder, they can be tricky buggers to repair, rehab and physio is the go.
