Bloody hell me old fruit, you could have ended up decapitated from hitting that beast, so its a shame you did not put some money on the EuroMillions.

Glad your ok, and the bike looks like its hardly got a scratch :cool:, although its hard to tell on black bikes.

(Some pics of the trumpet next to the household waste sign next time ;):p)

possibly, gravel in the engine will probably see to that, plus expensive plastics...

try to buy it back and rebuild the engine myself for a track bike perhaps, or just part out the good bits...

Sorry to hear about this. At least you're not too badly hurt. Hope your insurance is fully comp. Hope you're back on the road soon.

Those 675's crash well then! An SV cartwheeling would be a write-off! I can barely see any damage on yours TLW!

I hope you heal quickly fella!!

Deffo a right off, when the bike was on it's side in the van all the casings came out and it looked like it probably would have mashed up the insides. So would mean a total engine re build on top of the body work and front sub frame damage.
