Norma road this afternoon (14:45) at the roundabout crossing McCoy in Myaree, I stopped to give way to a truck (who was to become my witness).
From behind I'm hit by an old mercedes and my back wheel goes up and onto the bonnet, all a bit surreal. I look down and I'm in a frozen stoppie position, then I look behind and he reversed dumping me on the road.
My brand new exhaust crumpled. He say's he didn't see me. That's original. Anyway off to the docs tomorrow, back and neck a bit sore.
Bike chucked on back of trayback to Causeway Yamaha, insurance will chase him up. He pretty much admitted he was at fault and will pay everything. Quite a reasonable man after he'd listened to my tirade.
Thanks to Cam for the reassuring phone call. I think I just needed a laugh about the situation at that point.
Seriously murphies law. I just ordered the PCIII as well. FFS. Hope there's no frame damage.
