RobSheffield Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 good advert for the bobbins, and bike will sort, you however wouldnt have if you had been hurt, so thats positive straight away maybe a good excuse to go for all carbon lower fairings :D remember - out of any negative comes a positive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 remember - out of any negative comes a positive The only think coming out is money from my bank . Well it's fine to ride so the repair will have to wait for now. I would say what anoys me is people not looking properly for bikes, but he didn't even stop at a junction. Im sure if i was shook up i would have really given him an ear full. Oh well, same journey to be done again tomorrow. Oh yeah, forgot to say, sliced my thumb with a stanley knife today too. I now have blood over my pink Torque Convertor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewen Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Everyones out to get you when your on a bike bud. I dunno if they don't see you or don't care The one that did it for me was t-boning a Jag that had pulled out straight in front of us...saw Jane do a James Bond baddie over the top of the car then not much else till I heard a womans voice screaming at her husband to get back in the car and get out of there. Was a while before anyone else came and I couldnt move to see how Jane was, although I could hear her moaning. Turned out not too bad, six or seven weeks off work for me but Jane had landed well thank god. Police never tracked the bastard down. That was that...took my driving test straight after.

stevie_b Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 James, I don't know you, but I'm pleased you're OK. Get some leathers. You're all right this time, but treat this as a warning shot! There's no excuse for car drivers not looking out properly for bikes, but as long as I've got a hole in my @ss, they'll keep on being careless. If you intend to keep riding for quite a while, then get some leathers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted May 17, 2006 Author Share Posted May 17, 2006 all because you broke that mirror getting it outta ya nova all them years ago:p I'll have you know i never smashed any of my mirrors on my Nova Look on the bright side, at least you can say you went down on a Virgin Not a bad way to look at it. Get some leathers. You're all right this time, but treat this as a warning shot! There's no excuse for car drivers not looking out properly for bikes, but as long as I've got a hole in my @ss, they'll keep on being careless. If you intend to keep riding for quite a while, then get some leathers I have got leathers but i was badly sold them and they don't fit right so i usually wear 2 sets of jeans which have saved me before. But as usuall the time you wear just the one set and this happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
