Re: Crash
 

no definite news on stinky yet, but we went to see her and she did't look good :(

the back end was wonky and bent/snapped, a fair bit of grab rail was worn away, dent and scraped top of tank, one sheared of crash bung and one scuffed crash bung, no gear/back brake levers left, no side stand, scuffed headlight, scraped top of screen, cracked nose, scratched frame...

prolly more but i can't remember right now.

Re: Crash
 

Yep, she did look in a very bad shape (mostly bent). The 1st thing I noticed was the back subframe was bent to the left. Your exhaust had very minor scuffs on the end bands that I wouldn't have noticed until it was pointed out :(

Was the erm road legel baffle in...? ;)

Re: Crash
 

no news on stinky yet, the assessor's supposed to be seeing her tomorrow.

eviltiwn is getting xrayed today to see if he is broken too.

Re: Crash
 

another update: police have contacted eviltwin and he's got to go to the police station with his licence etc and they've written to him and asked him to give them more details about the accident (i think he already told them everything at the scene though)

Re: Crash
 

question on form to fill out for the police:
"do you think that the offender should be prosecuted?"

Re: Crash
 

er now let me see... :lol: :lol:

actually that reminds me - we saw the forms submitted by witnesses after etienne's accident last year (some girl drove into the back of him while he was stationary in a traffic queue). One witness said she thought etienne should be prosecuted for his part in the accident as he had filtered past her car earlier - even though on the same piece of paper she stated that he hadn't at any point been speeding/riding recklessly. go figure?!! :smt102

IMO that is the most stupid question ever...

Re: Crash
 

Whilst this may seem a strage question you need to think about it serioulsy,
whislt there actions were unforgivable it was not deliberate but was avoidable...

we are all aware of the extra risk that riding a bike incurrs, such as smidsy's.

try and put the boot on the other foot, if you were missfortunate enough to do the same would you feel that being prosecuted was fair after all it was an accident, not a "deliberate", and as far as i have been made aware the driver was not uninsured, drunk or under any illegal influence to worsen the sittuation.

Re: Crash
 

i agree (to a certain extent). i also wonder if the accident would have happened if the driver wasn't ancient.

Only just seen this, sorry to hear about your off, get well soon.
