Yammer Dan Posted July 18, 2013 #2 Posted July 18, 2013 Glad you came out as good as you did. Bike can be fixed. Tomorrow is when you will be sore in places you didn't know you had!!
Trader Posted July 18, 2013 #3 Posted July 18, 2013 Sorry to hear about that. I've got all 1st Gens so I can't help you out on parts. But on the good side the VR fund gets another $5 donation!
N3FOL Posted July 18, 2013 #4 Posted July 18, 2013 Sorry to hear about your mishap. Heal well. Hope someone can help you on bike parts.
friesman Posted July 18, 2013 #5 Posted July 18, 2013 Sorry to hear that you took a slide, but am glad that youre mostly ok. Too bad about your bike but at least it can be fixed. Ill be out in Nelson around the first week of August just enjoying the roads and the area, I hope you can. Brian
SilvrT Posted July 18, 2013 #6 Posted July 18, 2013 hey Gordie ... glad you're not seriously hurt ... would be even gladder if you weren't hurt at all. Since you're heading out on the scoot tomorrow, those you meet along the way and see your bruised scoot will surely tire you out from telling them about your mishap. Ride safe my friend!
