The bad thing about a motorcycle, you will get the worst end of the deal whether it is your fault or not. If a 2500 lb car pulls out in front of my 7000 lb truck physics are in my favor. I actually had this happen once, direct T-bone, pure luck for car I hit the passenger side, no passengers, turned left in front of me at a stop light so relatively slow speed.
I've read it on this forum before, but ride like you are invisible and like they are trying to hit you, sometimes easier said than done.
Yes but unfortunately i really was invisible to this cuss. She pulled out in front of me then changed lanes as soon as i got close enough.

I had over 5,000 in damage (including labor) and all I had replaced on the engine were two case covers. You look to have case damage and that throws it into a completely different category, unfortunately.
Heal up man. It's going to take time.
Yeah but this is for the better... I'll miss this bike but I'm just going to work on my roadster. I just got home from the hospital yesterday. 8 days in and I'm still in a cuss ton of pain.

Your first line quoted was really funny Matt ...lol
Second line quoted..glad you are finally home. Hospitals stink, hard to sleep, always taking blood and stuff, weird noises, weird smells. It has to feel good to be home with your family.
Keep us informed. She was sited and insured correct?

Yes she is insured but that's all i know so far.
Can't wait to finish up my 65' Datsun Fairlady Roadster
There is a rarity. Datsun 1500 didn't come to the US with "Fairlady" badging, did they? A whopping 357cc more than your CB, so be careful!
