    I just found out my riding gear is covered too so I'm dropping it down to my Honda dealer today so the assessor can look at it as well as my bike.
    I'm off today and maybe a couple more. I'm feckin stiff and sore: neck, shoulder, lower back, right hand, my nuts, right knee. Apart from that, I'm fine !!
    The main thing is .... as my bike was only 5 or 6 weeks old, they will make sure it's back to new condition .. which is very good! I would be pissed off big time otherwise.
    Good luck with you insurance etc.
    Grant.

    Well from sliding on my arse down the road its hard to see any damage at all so for the low speed they seem good, still have an abrasion on my knee from the initial impact that the draggin armour would have prevented - will likely grab some with the insurance money when i get replacement pants.

    Bugger mate.

    Hi Danny,
    Sorry mate, just saw you had a smallish off a couple of days ago. Glad to see you are ok. It sucks to be driving the car again. Hate to be you I hope all gets sorted.

    Bull's keen to host it. Who wants in?...
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Update - TSS got the bike a week after the crash and i am now awaiting them to suss between Italy and NZ a price for replacement parts. Then will be further delay with shipping and fitting of said parts.

    Hopefully i might even get the bike back this side of xmas but not looking likely which sucks.

    Is there any insurance that provides hire of bike till your one is fixed?

    Not likely mate. No one could afford the premiums.

    Wanna take the RF for a spin to get it out of your system?
