Don't worry mate, if your witnesses hold up her admitting liability is irrelevant.

Looks like a new RSV for you, sue her fat ***.

Glad your not seriously hurt though.

He was selling the full bike on e-bay for opening bid of £2000 last week with no takers looks like he is going to break it or turn it back to standard.

Re; that swingarm..

My bike, before I owned it I might add... had a moosive dent in it like yours. My buddy rode it hard, and it was fine. Its a pretty strong thing. If your bike now goes round corners without you... then yerp its ******. But if it still tracks okay its fine.

He found one in a Aprilia dealers for £200 in black... and spent a whole weekend de-blacking it... ******* ******. Cos I am about to take it off and black it cos i think it would look da bollox.irate

Fixy fixy,

Bit of T-cut also put the offensively loud race can back on, don't give a **** now who it offends. just need to get those clip ons and indicator sorted and its back on the road!

You can barely see the damage at this distance
