Crash this morning

[GothicGhost]

I was on the main road and the car coming out the left side road edged out a little and stopped, so I assumed he seen me and was waiting.

Then as I got really close he was looking left and just pulled out, I had about half a second before impact.

I crushed my chest into tank and then me and bike fell over, Police, firetruck and ambulance turned up.

I was taken to hospital as I have very bad neck and spine pain.

Not what you need on a Friday

Bike being collected now and I gave the police my dashcam footage.
I need to sort the insurance side of things later today.

Thank you all

I called my insurance it was really easy going over everything and my bike being collected Tuesday and a courtesy bike dropped off at the same time.

I am out of hospital now and just healing my wounds.

Hopefully I will be back to work Wednesday if I am feeling up to it.

What bike, is it ok?

It's a 2013 Honda CBR 500, the front fairing cracked and other bits will need fixing.

My insurance picking it up Tuesday for a inspection.

Thank you all

Were the forks/steering OK afterwards? They seem to be pretty strict these days on writing off bikes if there is any suggestion of steering damage. I thought mine was perfectly fixable after an accident, but they condemned it regardless!

I am not sure, they look okay but the dash has pushed upwards out of the fairing a little so it could damaged

My father inlaw had a trailer so he picked up the bike so it was no in another town for days.

Luckily I had a GoPro but the police have that at the moment.

But he's the top view of what happened so I am sure he will be 100% at fault.
