    I have this thing I like to do called living. I don't think a faster bike will help me with that. Not yet anyway.

    BTW I may not make it to the car park on time this Wednesday, should be there by 630 though. I'll be right at the back being a nana, especially up the hills

    nah the headlight is smashed, the fairing is basically shattered, the other side is all scuffed up now, the clutch lever end snapped off, the whole front fairing bracket is pushed down and so is the instrument panel, mud guard is cracked.

    other than that the engine is sweet and the forks felt fine (it happened 200m from home so i rode it home)

    Did you call the cops? Report it if you didn't as a non injury accident just to cover yourself, I have been caught out by a bloke who was a bit drunk hit me while I was parked, at the time I listened to him saying please dont report it I will pay etc, about a week later I got a bill from his insurance for a repaint of the whole side of his car and other strange damage, found out he had reported it to the cops next day as if I was in the wrong I ended up without a leg to stand on , never did work out how some of the other damage was caused to his car.
    Its not the destination that is important its the journey.

    Oh yeah what Tristan said get check out, if you can today just in case there are any issues, you might feel fine straight after but the adrenaline and endorphins wear off things start to hurt mighty bad.

    balls caught the tank as I went passed....zipper of fly left a mark I'll let you use your imagination where.

    but doc says my willie is fine, so did the nurse.

    2 days off work, tomorrow will be achy fun.

    the guy who did the U turn has already contacted me and started filling out insurance papers, he's fully insured and has accepted fault, I also have a witness but doubt I'll need one.

    ahhh how can I inform the police? calling 111 seems a bit drastic...
