This morning (530 am) on my way to work some guy decided to make an illegal U turn in front of me. My only option was to hit the brakes; it didn't cut it. I ended up bouncing off his car, landing on my back, rolling over, popping up on two feet, only to have my bike continue to roll on two wheels (those things just don't want to go down) and decide to tip over next to me hitting the side of my knee. I was pissed, too, second gear, nothing crazy, and at the speed limit...maybe even a little below. Cops gave the guy a ticket and said he was at fault. I think I am fine but sore; my knee hurts and my left hip. My Bike is F**ked, it's at the dealership, who knows what they will say. In my signature is the before pics, I will see if I can get some of the photos that the guy took of the afters.

So watch out, the shitty drivers have been let loose today.

By the way, something I had forgotten from winter...riding the T sucks.
daaamn, glad both of u are ok. Best of luck for your knee and your bike's recovery dave. Hard to believe having seen it absolutely spotless last week.... jeez, really hope the dealer/insurance can help you out and get you back on the road.
