Default Flat tire... then bike falls off recovery truck!

Well what a great morning I've had.... happily zooming though the traffic on the M3, havin just over taken a Laverda 750. When I think woooh whats that bike feels wobbly, pulls over to the hard shoulder to fine a huge 'screw' sized hole in my back tire. Bugger, oh well will have to get it recovered and the tire replaced.

Recovery bloke turns up nice and quick, so we start to put it on the back on the truck, he gets me to sit on the bike while he pushes it up the single ramp. We get almost all the way up the ramp when the bike starts to slow and wobble. Then I thinka lorry trundles past blowing the bike over and chucking me in to the ditch. Oh crap!

The bike has a smashed rear seat pannel, cracked undertray, smashed front inicator, scratched front right fairing pannel, scratched front mudguard and fork....

Great day...
