    More info :-

    The rider is okay, has a broken femur and is in Masterton Hospital.
    Had a ti rod put in last night.

    Apparently the bike is an SP model which was imported over from UK when the owner shifted over too, and has more damage than first thought. Got this info from Motomart where the bike is currently residing.

    He's not thought to be a Kb'er.

    Cheers,
    NDMz

    Anyone notice the weather yesterday?

    Stop riding on sunny days. Riding motorcycles is obviously much safer in crappy weather.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Thanks for the help and concern!

    Well it was unfortunately me that was rubber side up a few weeks ago (that's what happens when you don't have the mind 100% on the job in hand).

    But a very big thank you to everyone who stopped to help!

    People were fantastic including Clinton who organised getting a ute up to collect the bike and the people roadside who kept the cheerful conversation ticking over while waiting for the ambulance!
