Alright folks crashed my mille last weekend absolutely gutted :bawling
I was on a road trip round wales on a road I've never been on before so wasn't going too fast and the front end tucked/collapsed on me. I was doing around 50-60mph at the time didnt even start the corner just as I was letting off the brakes/starting to tip it in I lost it. Ended up in a fence with a torn tricep, hole in my knee and a cracked bone in my foot as well as some nasty gravel rash where the stretch panels used to be. Not too bad really.
Been told today bike is Cat C, front wheel shattered, exhaust, swing arm, damage to all panels, tank, clocks, front bracket, clip ons, pegs etc etc.
The insurance said I could have the bike back for 40% of its value which is £1200 robbing bar stewards :angry
Was thinking of turning it into a track bike but think its not viable with all the damage what do you guys think? :dunno
