Only 2 so far! First crash the Lorry driver just pulled out across the A road. I later found out his trailer lights wasn't hooked up properly hence him thinking he'd been indicating, not much you can really do about it but learn from it.
It has a seat belt?
And you've already got a hornet? Looks nice
Yea, I've been saving for a decent one for a while and was intending on saving another grand or so for a newer one, but this will do me fine for the moment. Will look even better once I've got all the new stuff ordered.
Yea fingers crossed I've just been unlucky so far, I even ride like a grandad on the weekly commute and it's not as though my old cb was super sporty, heh. Good few lessons learnt though, to assume everyone is out to knock you off everywhere even when it's inconceivable they will.

1.1k whole lot of bike for the money imo, there's a few around for around that price although you have to wait a week or so for a decent one to pop up
You might also want to have a look at a bandit 600, good few of those around for the money and an excellent first bike although they they do need cleaning often or regular coatings of ACF50 as they like to corrode.
Yea, although it's about average if you shop around and prepared to wait a few weeks. Asking price was £1200ono and managed to get him down to £1100 without even trying.
Nothing, was spotless and running great when I picked it up and still is now. Although I'm planning on doing a full service on it anyway just for my own piece of mind.
Oops, I imagine you must be feeling a little sore
Is everything ok with regard to the driver and insurance etc? Any witnesses?
Yup although starting to get better.
Well the instructor/learner drove off while I was in the ambulance so still trying to find out their details.
What details do they require though? I don't even have his numberplate or driving school name, as I was in the ambulance when he pulled off, will check it out though.
