We are back!

[Scuba Steve]

Well,

Back in August, I ment a pile of gravel on a bend while on out the bike...

Taken out a road sign and bouncing off a few other things I got away lightly with a split shin and heavy bruising to my right side and a broken bone in my foot that was only discovered last week lol!

The gsxs750 didn’t look to bad at the time not when it was investigated more the frame had damage, to say the lease I was devastated wasn’t a good week when I got that news also!

Being the guys they are milsport refused to see my outa pocket and left hanging... they sorted the gsxs 750 and got me sorted with this new beauty

GSXS 1000Y
Ex demo
Under 500 miles
Remus end can
Tail tidy
First service complete
Delivered to my house by Aaron himself

At the minute I only managed a short trip out on it due to my knee my heel can only rest on the foot peg currently.

Got it washed and some of the gtechnic coating stuff on it

Btw my shed stinks of it still!

Photos attached

I’ll try, the photo with the car and the guy with no bike gear is where I am lying in the hedge

Ps I think it was a trap set by Larne people for capturing food

Nice, HTR
Same thing happened to a mate on a run back from Letterkenny on ZX10
Tried to claim off the house where the gravel was dragged out from, without success.
The same day another from the same group ended up under a 406 near Malin Head.

Health to ride!

Hit gravel myself recently mid corner on the RR but was lucky enough to stay upright, though was out of the seat and every shape! Take it easy for a wee while

That corner has caught many out before, those walls have been rebuilt numerous times! I'm around there all the time,it's been kept very clean lately

Yeh I’ve a solicitor that’s claiming for me at the minute but isn’t from the house. They where very nice came straight out to check on me and took the bike into their house till I got the lads to lift it for me. I ran outa space to correct the bike then I hit that sign. Police even skided on it when responding to the 999 when the guys rang it in.
