Tonight a guy tried to pull all the way over a double yellow to keep me from splitting lanes. I returned the favor in my own special little way and he was not looking too happy as I pulled away. Bunch of ******* ******** that we share the roads with.. Be careful guys.

Ed,
The same thing happened to me 30 years ago only she was 15 with a learners permit and her 17 year old boyfriend in the car with her (illegal). Didn't total the bike but I was thinking the same thing you did when I went over the hood in a sommersault. Passerby helped me straighten the forks out (bikes were pretty simple back then) and I rode to the doctors office where he pasted stuff all over my road rash. Ruined a good Bell helmet and my bike.
Get well soon and back on a new bike.

Glad to hear that you are basically OK.
A good friend of mine wasn't so lucky last month, he won't be walking for about 4 months.
Glad to hear you have good family to help out.
Best Wishes

DAMN, and OUCH!
Two good points: You're still alive, and the bike can be replaced!
Seems most car drivers lately don't think anything matters if it's outside their windshield. :angry: A friend of mine was almost killed last year by a delivery van that pulled an illegal u-turn without looking. He hit the side of the truck at 35 MPH. He spent 5 days in a coma, and a couple of months in rehab.
Ride with your hi-beams on during the day, and slow down near intersections. That's saved me from becoming a statistic several times so far.

HOLY CRAP!!!!
Damn man, we seem to be a cursed group!
The forks look terrible, ouch. Glad you sustained minor injury!
I'm sure you had some choice words for the cager!!!
Doesn't it just suck that you put in all that work and time to fix it, then had that "I did it," feeling for a while, then this.... Well, I know how it feels, but at least you have insurance. Heal up, and trash this one. Bitten once, ok, but bitten twice on the same cycle and it's time to get rid of her. If I had insurance mine would be out the door!

Nothing new to add on top of what's been said... glad to hear you weren't more seriously injured... tough to see an FJR looking like that and realize it only took some dimwitted cagers inattention of a few seconds to cause it.
Let's hope we can have a moratorium on similar incidences for a while... at least till after WFO, hopefully longer.

Did I hear you say, "This time I didn't touch the windshield" ? Have made that flight before? Well, I guess that ends the myth that once you lay the bike down, you don't have to worry about it anymore...
Get well soon brother.

Asked once by Toecutter, What gear, if any, were you wearing and how did it work
Heal quickly

Glad you are OK.
Hope you get taken care of financially.
Every time I hear about one of these accidents, I wonder what consequences await for the offender. I have heard too many stories of virtually nothing happening to people who endanger the lives of others on the road, and it really gets me riled. Do me a favor and take that female to the cleaners, if you can!
Best regards, get well soon, and stay careful out there, EM!
