Bike has just been hit while in a parking bay, by a motorist who reversed, not bothering to look where she was going, but by relying on the parking sensors on the car (which did not notice my bike!)
I was not there when it happened but luckily other people saw it, and she left her name at tel no in local shop - and it turned out to be her right name and address!!
So now my bike is looking even more sad than before with damage all along the right hand side - indicators, panel, exhaust, peg, mirror etc etc, so trying to repair it ready for the track day on monday
Guess they will write the bike off, hopefully I’ll be able to keep it tho
I’m hoping they will write it off, let me keep it and maybe make sum money out of it - bikes only worth few hundred pounds as its done 55k, just pisses me off when you try to look after things and get some a**hole that cant drive tries to wreck it.
some fuckwit of a bint did it to me last year when I was sat in the van.
‘Oh my sensors didn’t go oorrff’ said the snooty bitch. Lucky no damage but she was really shitty about it. Would have left some seriously expensive damage on her x5 if she did to me whilst on the bike.
actually she seemed ok, very posh and frightfully sorry! so going thru her insurance - have sortta repaired it altho buggered up the electrics doing it hehe still hopefully tomoz it will all be up and running, I just cant believe that she didnt look at what she was doing, don’t think i’d ever rely on sensors to tell me where I am.
Still at least she was good enough to leave correct details, thats unusual in itself.
