F**king Red Civic Drivers

Outlaw torn could have killed himself by choosing to split lanes.... What about being responsible for your own actions??

opening up a can of worms here dude.....

I know I was in the wrong, but come on, I was travelling at 35km's and this dippy fucking cage driver just simply pulls out.....

We are both in the wrong, but if this had happened to you you'd be as pissed as fuck at the driver, like I am

I'd go with what Skunk and Biff Baff said. Sounds good to me.

In the words of the man himself

Bottom line is that the driver failed to check his mirror and give adequate warning of his impending lane change.

if it was a police bike going to a crash up the road, and the same thing happened, who would have been at fault?

[sedge]

Not the policeman... apparently they are "trained to lanesplit" - Heard this from amotorbike cop - so they are allowed to do it.

Sedge.

Maybe...... But I would realise that i'm as much at fault as he was.

um, hello, I never said I was never at fault from the start, I know splitting is illegal and dangerous, I accept the consequences of my actions, but we ain't talking about me here, it's the situation I need help with.

I've just got back from picking my bike up and Alan at Colemans sorted a new brake lever for me and the total damage repair costs are at $825. Ouch!

As my Granddad was often heard to say: "You don't get owt for nowt!"

Particularly true for motorcycles.

Holy Crapola, Batman!

Amazing how spendy bike bits are. My VFR750 was written off due to cosmetic damage (nearly $8k worth....)

[zeRax]

eeeeee damn, bit more than first estimation eh, ouchhhhhhhhh

[outlawtorn]

yip, defintely a lot more than I anticipated.

Basically as a result of todays little spill I have to replace or fix the following:
Brake Lever (Already done)
Front ferring
Master cylinder cover
Repair & chrome exhaust pipe
Straighten right foot peg

But now my right knee has started to give me shit! My day is just getting better!

The nice man at Swann Insurance to whom I was talking only yesterday said he knew of bikes that had been written off for falling off their side stands...

[zeRax]

In 1992 I talked to a guy at the 1000 miler who'd had his Ducati 851 fall off the sidestand,the repair bill was $1200.
