Which bit of the bend did you come off at? It's a fairly interesting slip road, that tightens up as you go round.
Don't think that's it!

Okay, that is not the one I was thinking of. The slip road I was thinking of is the slip off the A21 heading onto the A25. The one you came off at rises in elevation as you go around it as well if I remember correctly.

That it does Jdubya rise in elevation as you go around, as I found out what was beyond that point as passenger in Kev's car.

Sorry to hear about this man, but you are lucky to get away with such a small injury wearing jeans on the motorway!

Well are the pictures I've been waiting for...

What do you all think of the damage caused...and potential repair?

Fairings are scratched a bit, but nothing too sad...but the bike is resting on gearbox at present, seeing as the wheel has no use.
