i trashed it:banghead, but on the brightside i am still alive and manageing the pain quite well, but still hurts done it last sunday spent 4 days in hospital.

damage to the bike is mild and could have carried on the ride,

i need one left hand akro silencer and rear seat pod left hand side(does the rear seat come in 2 halfs i am sure it does but its all locked up in the garage)
reason for so lil damage is i scrubbed enough speed off and there was nt anything oncoming and it was a soft landing as the ground was mud(into a ditch dogeing the branches and bushes and trees:crazy:eek
 
not good dude,,,but ye walked awa fae it,,,bikes only metal an plastic which means hee haw at the end o the day,,,speedy recovery :thumbup
 
Hope you repair yourself quickly, I hear beer has many healing properties. Take it easy. :)
sure does mixed with pain killers too even better but only 2 beers max as got blood in the lung not enuff to be worthwhile an infection risk to operate the surgeon said but back next week for a check up, also gave me a perscription for tramadol pain killers errrrrrrr "google tramadol with drawal effects", there not worth it unless a very very very very very very very last resort
 
Glad to hear you're ok (ish :rolleyes)

Right...the bike...

l/h ackra ..ebay is your friend....usually plenty around if you bide your time..you're looking at about £150 for a tidy one. One of the guys on this forum is selling a pair of mint ones for £250....you could ebay the spare one, the damaged one & the carbon straps, link pipes, spring retainers, baffles separately and probably come out in pocket..:yes

The rear plastic...the good news...it is in two pieces a right and a left....the bad news is to get a colour coded one to match yours you'll have to be really lucky...I gave up looking and had to stump up (wait for it) ...£140 for mine :crazy
 
sorry to hear about ur off dude,as u say it could have been a lot worse,a bikes easy to fix/repair,its the bones and other bits of us that are harder to fix.
hope ur back to 100% soon.
fecking hell,only 2 beers max,is that an hour or a day
 
Tramadol is evil, I was supposed to be taking that after an operation I had in April but after a few days I'd had enough! Horrible **** and I couldn't go poop.
Blood in the lungs doesn't sound fun, how did you come off?

Bad luck mate but at least your still in 1 piece , stay away from the tramadol , my mate was on that **** after he came off his bike and he couldnt get off the things .
Good luck with the repairs .
