Such a good photo that bottom one mate!

Did you have a good day - getting those sliders down? ;)

Sadly no more Motorbike for me, since a recent accident has written it off.
So no fancy pictures.

I have my eye on a CBR 600R,
Trying to persuade the other half first, as history tells i am a nutter for speed, and she is worried :( I tell her i am wiser now, maybe still a big kid, but deffo wiser :D

hey Jim Jam , you do realise you can get that bike back from the insurers for 10% of what they pay out to you ?
maybe get it back on the road for a fraction of the cost ??

depends what type of write off - C, D or X are usually repairable

* Category A - Must be crushed. All of it.

* Category B - Vehicle may not be returned to road but parts may be sold.

* Category C - Repairable. Significant damage. Cost of the repair is more than book value of vehicle at dealer rates.

* Category D - Repairable. Probably non-structural damage. May have been economic to repair, but insurer doesn't want to.

* Category X - Repairable. Minor Damage

Glad you weren't seriously injured - what was the story on the crash?

not the best view of the road i've got to say!

had a friend involved in a head on with a hyundai out riding on Saturday, off to his funeral next week but everyone said how much he loved it so i guess it doesn't deter anyone from getting out on the road :)

Get it!!

Double R? Underseat exhaust, damn they are nice.

Just convince her it will save her more money for shoes and clothes, and maybe the odd flowers/chocolate won't hurt to change her mind haha

Or just go all out and get a S1000RR ;)

Yeah they aren't taking the ''Salvage'' they will less me the salvage off the value of my bike then let me do what I want with it.
Not too badly damaged, Category D - Beyond Economic repair.

Was tempted to Street fighter it or fix it then sell it on for a small profit.
We will see I suppose.

Thanks for the heads up though! :)
