This is what happened when someone pulled out in front of me on a dual carriageway last Saturday:
3706
3704
3707
3705
Ouch! Luckily I fared better than the bike and was able to get up and walk (limp) around after it happened. Can't say much more as its still an open insurance case. Make sure you wear your kit people...and watch out for them there cars.
PS Thanks to Paws for your help, it all looks to be going through ok so far.
cheers

Thats pure vandalism------One of the best bikes Kawasaki ever made mindlessly destroyed.Glad you got away with it,now hit em for loads of money.Every item of kit/clothing and a bad back is worth a quid or two.
make them pay for not looking properly depending on when you want your money tho, i does take a while, especially if they dont admit its their fault, hard to believe they wouldnt in this case but it still happens
Fook me mate, looks like you had a lucky escape, glad your ok bud!

gawd, I'd have hopped over and smashed his car in, to see how he liked that.
Theres just no need for mindless pulling out and trashing someones pride and joy

Ouch, lovely looking bike too! :(
Seems to be the season for it!
Glad you're ok.
Keep chasing the insurance. I'm still waiting to hear about liability being admitted from the 2nd of March!
What will you get to replace the now dented up pride and joy?
im still waiting for the liability to be admitted from mine back in november, stay on top of it

The other party has admitted liability, so that was the biggest hurdle over.
As for my next bike...I have a plan, watch this space...!!! :-)

That's awful :( Worst I've seen in a long time ...
Such abuse of the apostrophe ;)
ROFL!
Reminded me of the Terry Pratchett Greengrocers where every word is apostrophied!

Shocking apostrophe usage...good spot!
I was still pretty numb at that point, the pain of the bruising/swelling/road rash etc hadn't kicked in! At least none of you lot have commented on how badly my face got damaged in the smash, unlike the clowns at work :-)
