Sorry to hear about what happened.

Get well soon mate

Sory to hear of your off mate, Paws will be upset to see a Triumph damaged like that.

Best of luck with the recovery.

Lol yeah I thought that till I noticed the bent forks in the pictures..

Looking at maybe £1800-£2000 to repair that I think.. GL with the insurers. You'll also probably have to pay for the sign you dented!

Then again the sign you hit is in keeping with your bike.
Joke i love the daytonas..



Consider yourself lucky.. you could have hit the sign badly and bicked the kucket.

bad luck dude- mend quick

GWS mate!

Shame about the bike, personally I'd stick a new side cover on it, flush the cases, change the oil and see if it sounds f##ked when you start it.

If it sounds alright then jobs a gud un and you can keep your NCD

I'd be tempted to look at this route too, then you could repair the bodywork as and when?

I thought he said the forks seemed straight?

Phew, looks like a lucky escape TLW.

GWS

Hope you heal quickly. Should be a lot quicker than Fizz, cos he's an old 'un ain't he.

I thought the forks look bent too, but is that just a trick of the light in the two pics?

GWS, glad your not too badly hurt. Good luck getting the bike sorted.

when you do it you do it in style mate, anyone one you walk away from and all that

What, like a tram? Blimey!

You seem to have retained your sense of humour anyway

Take your time and heal up right.

ive crashed in 2 of those so can vouch for that, sorry to hear this bad news TLW but looks like it could have been very much worse, hope the hand heals quick and your insurance sort the bike out quickly for you,

one day we'll have a rideout where no one crashes
