I was at Cadwell Park this weekend and one of the local bike salvage companies turned up with a BMW S1000RR for sale that had been down the road with only 17 miles on the clock on a 60 reg:(

Similar, but more iron scroll work and works well as an ornamental gate!

Shame about the BMW though! Amazing bike.

Any idea what happened?

Have you seen the shape?

The S1000 looks like it was wrought...

Makes my 1000miles from new to Cat C look like a lifetime...:rolleyes:

There is a rumour about a bloke writing his new bike off 100yards from the shop on '60' day in Coulsdon.

I almost flipped the sv about 25 meters from the shop when i bought it. Hand slipped off the clutch and off i went look for an accident,a nd almost found one within about 25 yards from the shop! :lol:

road sign is still bent! ;)

Meh I dropped mine at an island within 10 miles of riding it! But it already had 700 on

Whoever bought had loads of cash, but not enough skill?

Depends on how it was written off, rider error or other?

Anyone see the In Betweeners a few weeks back where Jay crashed Neil's new bike into the shop front? It was funny but there was a ring of truth to it.

That Inbetweeners clip looks like it was filmed at E C Bate in Dartford. Must remember to not do exactly the same when they service my bike in a couple of weeks...

I smashed the front indicator within a day of getting my brand new bike. The garage door blew open on to it. Took me nearly three years to actually drop it.

Yes it was. They spent a fair bit of time filming in and around Dartford.

The scene where Jay plays with the dog in the park then runs off to have a wank was filmed in Central park in Dartford.

That is so funny and yet so sad... Scared to laugh because I may well have done something equally stupid! ;)

I thought it was. However the less said about the goings on in central park the better...
