She's starting ok now - initially she started after the accident so i could get her across the road - but then wouldn't start. Think i must have left her with the park lights on. Battery is charged all good now.

If your around the area then give me a shout - fingers crossed will have the bike sorted soon and i'll be back on it.

Will let you all know how it goes with getting her sorted. As long as theres nothing major wrong i can sort the rest of it

Thought as much, nasty junction. Glad you've got her ticking over again and from the pics and what everyone has said, shouldn't be too much work to get her back on the road as she was before.

Stretchie and I are just off J18 of the M4, so any time you fancy coming over this way too....just give us a shout. You have to like dogs though....we have four!

Welcome, and good for you! I'm sure there'l be lots of people calling you mad...but the throttle works both ways eh?

Hi. welcome. Oh and bugger too.

Welcome, I know that junction, I'm glad you're ok, and I hope to see you around.

cheers all. am getting estimate for damage tomorrow so crossing everything theres nothing major wrong. If all is well may well join ya on the ride out. Sounds like good fun

Hello and welcome.

Similar thing happened to me at a set of traffic lights (luckily I was in the car), the lights changed and car in front stalled, I waited patiently for them to get going and the car behind set off straight into the back of me!
