Default Richie1743's had an off :o(

Just thought I'd let you all know Richie's had an off, fortunately at low speed

He's dropped his bike on its right side & damaged his rear brake pedal & scratched his fairing a bit...

He isn't hurt (apart from a dislocated thumb (he thinks <ouch!>))

He's 'Darn Saaaaf' at the moment on a course, so I dunno how often he'll be appearing on here, but I just though I'd take the opportunity to say chin up buddy & hope the bike ain't too bad

See you when you get back

Dislocated and relocated thumb on left hand.. Owch... swelled up rather nicely...mussel and tissue damage and yes I'm left handed...**** hapopens...

bike is still rideable.

right hand front indicator smashed.. (lens held together with electrical tape)
exhaust dented... (sorry iansv)
top fairing scratched.
lowers scratched and tore at the rear.
r/h mirror scratched. (but it'll do)
brake pedal snapped. (but enough left to stamp on..)

rode it back from Black Bush market to Rochester...

Oh yes the tilt switch cutoff works

Very peed off with myself as I was doing a U turn at a deadend, and just tuched the front brake on wet leaves and a touch of ice. and the bike just went from under me... luckly only doing about 4 mph.
