Strange, but my friend just had a very similar accident at 15mph pulling out of a junction. Stranger still there was no deisel/oil/crap in the area and still can't understand what or why. He ended up with similar damage to bike and broked colar bone in two places. Get well soon guys.

Punctured lung!? You don't do anything by halves haha. Glad the bike is fine though, was it the sv I guess? See, its never when you are doing wheelies, only when pulling out of junctions. Hope you are ok soon Ian!

I hope it was the SRAD, but like Nick i guess it was the SV.

Sorry to hear mate, but at least lungs are ten a penny nowadays. Just grow another one.
