Went for a ride today with Joss the biker who came to my aid when I was all immobile and stuff on the tarmac. ....and found out why the other car's repair bill was so much. I was already aware the bike had done a flip then a 180....just didn't know it hand flipped over the car which is where I parted with it.

Apparently joss was coming up the road and saw mr audi come down and slam on the brakes and indicator and shat it that he was about to pull out...nope..... BANG me and bike came into view over the car's roof. Bike went over the bonnet I landed on my head on the wrong side of the road and rolled.

oopsy

And here's the bike's current OTR state

Still a work in progress but that's its half resurrected state

Got some plans
