its funny you mentioned it. because it wasnt even scratched. if i get another fz6 then im keeping it. if not then i will definitly sell it. it only has one week of commuting on it.

holly sh*t...

You are really one lucky guy, compare to the bike your injury is nothing (don't mean it in a bad way).

Probably not worth repairing it.

I am selling mine if you are interested.

Wow, glad to hear that you're on the road to recovery. Hopefully, the cager's insurance will hook you up. Take care and get well soon. I hope you'll be back riding PDQ.

what are you doing legally?
I've always taken the stance that if the person not at fault is okay then it's no big deal as long as the person at fault pays to fix the cars.
In your case; however, you were injured and look to be impaired from day to day life. I'm sure many would tell you to get what you can. I don't know since I've never been hurt in an accident (knock on wood). Good luck!

I had the worst monday of my life. on the way to work a red honda pulled left directly after the car i was following giving me only about one car length to try to stop. i didnt slow down much before i impacted her front end. it didnt help that she paniced and stopped in my lane.:spank: the fireman told me i flew about 25-30 feet. i ended up laying across my lane. i couldnt breath and i thought i was dying. sorry for the poor grammer, its tough typing with only one hand. thank God im alive!
Jesus mate,

I am glad you are OK. How fast were you going? that is some serious fork twistage.
Everyday we are all reminded of how lucky we are to be alive.
Heal up soon fella.

Nelly

PS
if you part your bike I will buy your seat and passenger grab rail. I hope you didn't do that to the tank with your plums..............

I estimate 30mph slowing from 40mph. I will check to see what parts are still good.
When i was in the hospital i was wondering how i got the cuts and swelling around my crotch area. I thought it was from the windscreen but after seeing the bike i now know my inner thighs and pelvis crunched the tank. it even shows the paint on my riding pants. Everything still works.:thumbup:

Whoo!!! I just finally saw the pics. You are a lucky son of a gun to have only gotten hurt the amount that you did. Kudos to you and I hope that everything turns out fine with the lawyer/insurance stuff.

LMAO I love going buy cars with huge dents or their bumpers are falling off and their sitting there jabbering away on their phone.. doing their makeup... I mean honestly how stupid could you be to not realize that doing that probably caused the damage to your car... there for DONT DO IT AGIAN!...

Sorry road rage came out a bit (and I'm not even on the road :ban:)

God Damn....:eek:

Izzy, I am glad you are relatively OK. From the looks of your Fizzer, it could have been much worse for you.:(

Hope you get better soon.

Just saw the pics.... HOLY CRAP!!!! You've got a Guardian Angel man because that bike appears to have been in what I'd deem a fatal crash! You've reinforced the very reason I gear up even to make a quick run to the store on a hot day.

So glad you'll be OK!
