    Course I sat on it too, and I sat on TS's gixxer before he crashed it. I've never sat on Frosty or Loose Bruce's bikes so I'm probably not the jinx. Ah, I know, when I sat on the R1 I was wearing MR's leathers, so it's probably all his fault!

    I have reasonably good intel that the Skytower is an alien transmitting tower, with some unfortunate side effects for the Orks

    Na. It was later that night. (about 12pm)
    Yeah I think i already have a lever and footpeg sorted.
    Then it will be nearly back to normal. (or as close as it will get for a while)
    Paint work can wait.

    Tough luck dude .
    We all have these moment's when you ride bike's . I keep telling myself to focus on the road & surrounding's . It's hard but it has saved alot of crashes & close call's over the year's

    Not good at all mate! Like the others have said, at least it (and you) still goes eh. Imagine if you had the R1 just for decoration in your gargre! Oh the humanities.
    Just a quick Q: I thought crash bungs were to protect the fairings too but are they mainly just to protect the frame and other 'vital bits'?

    They usually do protect the fairings. (did on the right side)
    But the left hand one broke off!! It did take the hit well, but then broke off and the fairing touched.
    Am at work today, We have a couple of R1's (wrecked) at our warehouse, so am gonna rob some goodies off them.
    Titanium exhaust may be on the cards!!
    Just need to fix up the scratched fairings.

    Of course every motorcycle accident can be avoided - don't ride.

    In fact, stay in bed, even safer.

    Yeah right.

    Bad luck Sparky - hope its back on the road soon.
