sleepy2 Posted June 24, 2008 Share #1 Posted June 24, 2008 Clipped taillight and bumper of truck turning from my lane but decided to stop and wait instead.As I was already slowing it wasn't as bad as it could have been.Roads were wet and lost traction at last second.If he had kept moving I would have missed him.Thought hand was broken but it was only badly swollen and bruised as was left leg.Last I seen bike it was in rough shape(windshield / headlight / fairing / broken) but will look at it tomorrow.Will get back with more details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Krom Posted June 24, 2008 Share #7 Posted June 24, 2008 :7_6_3[1]:Dear Sleepy, for your pain and that your ride is broken! At least you weren't really badly injured and rain is not always this forgiving. Money or Insurance will repair your ride like new. It looks like your recovery will take a little time for your hand, but we always learn something from a crash and at least you won't do that again. Remember :sign **** happens:so don't let it ruin your day and there are many of us out here that are here to support you . So get well soon and ride again soon!
