Pulled the bike out into the sun today and had a good look over it before it goes to the bike shop.
I noticed that when I held the front brake and rocked it back and forth there was movement in the bars, maybe 3mm.
Triple Tree bent? Frame head stem bent??

How have you pulled up ??

How have you pulled up ??

Good mate, this morning was thevfirst morning to wake up with the shoulder not hurting. Knees are nearly back to normal so fingers crossed I can mark this down as fz6 1 - hilux 0

Got some news today,
the old FZ6 has a bent frame forks triple tree and front wheel so Im putting my money on a write off.. Good in a way but I looked for so long to find that bloody bike!!! right price Kms and the all important black black colour!!!

Ah well FZ8????? :BLAA:

Hmmmm well its official, its been written off. They offered me $6000 but I refused and got them to send their paperwork to the local Law firm (good old grandpa). Cost me 7,000 then 900 rego green slip and I only had it 3 months!! Try and squeeze an extra 500 out of them or something.
Anyone know about extra money for not having any form of transport of 4 bloody months??

Screw the bike -- that's insurance's job to worry.

Get an x-ray and make sure nothing is out of whack. It's always day after when you realize how sore you are.

Hope you make out ok.

I agree here. I was in a a head-on wreck with a drunk driver with my car and I thought I was fine until the next day when I got up and realized how SORE I was.
