Amazing you weren't hurt worse! What sort of gear were you wearing?

Why, it's fucked!

You should be able to rape some money out of him for that.

There must be some savable bits. You had it looking pretty trick too. Bummer. I really like the control levers, one still is ok, maybe?

I hope you get that bitch nailed to the fuckin wall for this.

That will buff out.

Well if the insurance companies play ball and yet get an opportunity to buy another bike then I'd look at trying to sell those pile of parts you now own. Bet there're many GSXR owners who needs parts to replace those that dropped off.

What a sad thing to happen to such a beautiful bike.

R.I.P gorgeous blue Gixxer.

Just glad we're not saying R.I.P to you, Weta.

Yes a big thanks to Mr Shoei for saving my head, although the lady whose head I collected with it as I went through her windscreen may not agree. fracture skull and broken nose, she's OK though and it wasn't her fault - she was the next oncoming vehicle that I landed on as flwe through the air.
Had all the usual gear for a long ride on leather trou, armoured jacket, race type boots. Only had light summer gloves but they seemed to do the job. No idea where any of that stuff is though vaguley remember the ambo lady cutting the jacket off me.... never mind the squishy bits inside survivied OK.
