Default I Just fell off :(

Hey all, just had a spill on the a339, i'm o.k but the bikes not too good. Went under the back of a volvo after the drivers girlfriend screamed "there's a bike!" and decided not to overtake the cyclist. Oh well.
new forks requires, R/h and L/H switch gear, mirrors, clip-ons, RH crash bung, viper can and both levers (left hand side of bike went under back of the volvo, naturally it was unscathed!!)
If any of you stopped or rode past, cheers for all the help and checking if i was o.k, was nice to see so many people giving the thumbs n stuff

Ouch.

Get yourself checked out properly, the pain can come a couple of days after an off.

The bike will get healed over time.

Glad you havent come off too bad. Sorry to hear the bike is in a bad way!

Pain will come in quite badly after a few hours (next day).

bad news about your off but as already has been said - the bike can be fixed and make sure you are ok.

May it be your last ever accident. I nearly had one today too. Good luck to us all on these roads full of imbeciles.
