And i cant get it home till next weekend because a recovery company want £500 to get it home so geting van to bring it back, police were called and all that
Not a good day ohh and we are away for my 18th that was on tuesday, bikes 3rd party so need to repair it, i was about 2 cars distace away from my dad and buy looks if skidmark i slid the back at least 3metres and front about one....

Re: crashed
 

Sorry to hear that mate but at least your ok ish it could have been a lot lot worse, are you not in the AA???

Re: crashed
 

man sorry to hear this. Good job you're in one piece! Know the feeling of having only 3rd party and doing damage. I'm sure you'll sort it in no time though.

Musta have been extra worrying for your Dad as well knowing you were behind him and then all that happened.

Re: crashed
 

Sorry to hear about that but glad you're only bruised. From experience, the bike will mend, what do you need? I ceashed 4rd party and was surprised how cheap it was to sort !!

Hope ya Dad don't claim off your insurance ;)

Re: crashed

Re: crashed
 

glad it wasn't worse m8 you can always buy new bits for a bike hope you dont hurt too much in th morning

A hard lesson learned hopefully Dan?

Re: crashed
 

tough one matey.

nice to hear your ok apart from a few bruises.

Re: crashed
 

Glad your well, pretty cack news about your bike and dads car.
If your dad claims compo for neck injurys he might buy you a new bike :0)

Re: crashed
 

Unlucky dude, hope it aint too bad, GWS

Re: crashed
 

dad and family are ok grass verge took most of the impact of bike but boot on dads car looks mangled, havent been AE police made sure im ok and with rac but they dont recover out of 10miles our faukt we dident get proper recovery thing, nothing i could have done if i hadant of held the brakes on i would have hit the car a lot faster than i did, i count my self lucky the police were pleased i was in full gear and were very helpfull, and dads car will be claimed on the company fleet insurance as its a company car

Re: crashed
 

Jesus mate that's terrible. Thank fook you're ok

When you get a parts list up I'll see if I can help

Re: crashed
 

Not sure you'll have the option to do that unless you're willing to lie about the circumstances of the collision.

Re: crashed
 

Barwel, Police can't really make sure you are ok as we are not medically trained. You should get yourself to an A+E to get a proper check, incase you have any cracked ribs etc.

Re: crashed
 

yeh what MBK said. Mate get someone to take you down to A&E, tell 'em what happened so they can check you out properly. Always better to catch any damage earlier rather than later.

Re: crashed
 

This.

Its good that you had all your kit on. And that you walked away, I know a few folk who've had similar accidents and havent been so lucky.

Now get to A&E and make sure there's nowt broken.

Re: crashed
 

Bet you wish you'd gone in the car now...

Heal well dude

Re: crashed
 

Hey there Barwel, sorry to hear of your accident. I am sure that your parents were horrified and relieved to see you were OK and I am sure that once the shock clears, you will feel a little lost for a while. Take care of yourself though and don't get too down hearted.

Both Carol and I send you our best wishes and wish you and your bike back to full health very soon.

Also, as other here have said, any pains or strange feelings, get yourself down to A+E. If you end up in Derriford, look out for some super fit Navy Doctors and Nurses!

Re: crashed
 

:-k haha, guess i must have missed them last time i was there.....:rolleyes:

Re: crashed
 

Sorry to hear bout the smash too, tis good your OK, bikes get fixed,

Re: crashed
 

Sorry to hear that - glad you're ok though!

Re: crashed
 

Glad you are Ok.
Could have been much worse. But still get checked out.

A right mess now but it'll all get sorted.
Hang in there mate.

Re: crashed
 

Can't imagine how you and your Dad feel. :(

Even fully trained Ambulance crew can miss things, as Kwak found when they gave him the all clear at the scene and he later found he'd broken his collar bone:smt009 After a, dunno, 80 mile ride home. :pale:

So if you're feeling tender today Barwell, you might want to consider A & E

Re: crashed
 

hope you feel ok today and your family are all ok too. scary having your own kid crash into you and you probably watching it happen

Re: crashed
 

Glad your fine mate but I,m if sorry I have a little laugh thinking of how you fill out the insurance claim forms:)

I have a twisted sense of humour but at least you and everybody else are ok.

Re: crashed
 

Glad i'm not the only person that had a little chuckle :D

Re: crashed
 

Glad you OK, post up in Madlanders if you need help with the bike, I'm sure at any point in time one of us will have a free pair of hands.

My Dad would have killed me for not leaving enough stopping distance and damaging his car!

If it's a company car and you don't want them to claim off your insurance, you had better say that your Dad reversed into your bike.

Re: crashed
 

what my dad thinks hapend is because he was dragging his brakes from the top of the hill so when he slamed his brakes on i dident react like i would if the brake lights sudernly came on because they were already on by then, obviousy i then slamed my brakes on bike cut out, rear locked up then front then it griped and threw me over the bars over the roof and down the side of the car and bike fliped into boot of car and to the side on to the enbankment going to have a look in a bit will get some pics of bike

Re: crashed
 

kinda know what that feels like man. Had something a bit similar where someones brake lights just didn't even come on and I went piling into their boot. I made so much air I didn't even hit the car. Not a nice feeling going over the handlebars, especially at speed! You're just praying you don't land on your neck.

Been checked out yet mate?

Re: crashed
 

geting checked when we get back, on the way now went and had a look at bike to day, so far the list of parts i need are forks,lights,clocks,yokes,bars,light mounts, mud guard maybe some cables, bars mirrors but will be looking at gsxr stuf and a trail tech vapor just not sure about havig clip on's so advice on how i can still have upright bars on a gixer front
