Bad news.Hope she feels guilty about it now.

Sorry to hear about this, hope your luck improves.

Bad luck, mate. Hope it's just cosmetic damage and you're not too badly injured.

Update:

Just heard back from the garage no damage other than the stuff I'd spotted, so no massive bills. A shade over £300 including labour and they reckon it'll be fixed by tomorrow (bits being delivered overnight- Wow Pete Hammond's in Cirencester seem to have a much better relationship with Suzuki parts than my local dealer!

)

Coupled with £350 of leathers (I've got spare winter gloves), this makes for a fairly hefty bill (Just under £700), but I suppose, like the injuries to myself, this could of been much worse.

Fingers crossed that my appraisal on Friday goes well and I don't starve next month.

Boss is v. understanding and has agreed to give me first call on any OT.

I think I'd best give her a ring tonight and smooth things over.

Another SV650.org engagement ????????

Sorry to read about your off mate- nasty stuff. Glad it's all worked out reasonably well though. Slippery surface?.....Perhaps you encountered the sticky grit mentioned elsewhere?

Didn't stop the other stuff, though ;p

edit: oh, and bad luck and all that stuff, you can tell I didn't read the post properly, can't you.

Weirder - Mrs W and I had a bit of a row last night, and we never fight. Something about the night before Valentines?

IndyPhoto - sorry to hear about your off. I'd have skipped work if I hadn't slept well enough to ride. In fact, I did today due to bad back pain that meant that I couldn't lie down last night.

Unfortunately I see that quite a few Orgers had had "offs" recently - for a variety of reasons. It puzzles me that I see that they beg steal buy and borrow bits from friends and fellow orgers to get back on the road again. We all pay for insurance cover dont we ? Well, unless we're third party (which IMHO is not worth the paper its written on) shouldn't our misfortune be our insurers problem ?
If I had an Off - I wouldn't be contacting e bay - I'd be wanting to know what MY INSURERS were going to do about it
