Damn! I feel your pain dude, had crushed jewels a few times.........just hope everything fires on all cylinders. Looks like you've created a new SV. We had the curvy, THEN we had the pointy.......now we give you the twisty!

Hope you're not in too much pain and that the g/f is fine. Should be an open and shut case for insurers. Good luck mate.

The crate is there so they can slide the bike along. The impact sent a ripple through the bike so the back wheel can't be turned either.

Good to see your crash bungs worked on the one side!

Hope your both recovering, tank looks nasty, I've got a plastic one, wonder what would happen with that!
