GTR SMASHED!

[O.C.]

Thanks peeps, it was on a country lane so no cameras nearby.
Bike needs new fairing cowl and left side as well as the inner and the fairing frame.
Also need a new centrestand and a few other minor bits.
I have most of it in my spares collection,except the cowl and centrestand.
Looks like about £300 in bits and about 30hrs work

I have a purple egg on my left hip and an achy chest and left arm, oh and both thumbs hurt.
But nothing Paracetamol and Ibuprofen can't handle. 

Its good to hear that your injuries aren't worse George

And here are some pics of the damage to the bike.
I would include a pic of my blue left hip but it's not pretty even without the 8" diameter bruise.

Any luck locating the BMW ?

[Boomer]

Nah, he's long gone.
I just hope he enjoys knowing he's a class A ****!

Ok - you have the photo evidence, maybe with time and date and possibly registration or name of driver of the damaged car. Why? well you have a failing to stop and the circumstances are exactly the same as a solicitor friend of mine who put a successful claim to the Motor Insurers Bureau. It's there for such accidents and as the solicitor said to me afterwards, there was no apportionment of blame to challenge the outcome. Let us know how you get on, please, as I've taken the time to advise you.

I've just seen your photos. Did you get the ladies name and did you blank out the registration?

Just seen this thread ... really sorry to read of your bad news but as others have said and I fully endorse this line of thinking ..." the bike can be replaced .. you can't " ..Mend well old fruit.

I've just seen your photos. Did you get the ladies name and did you blank out the registration?

I didn't get her name as she was blameless.
All she did was try to avoid a serious accident with a d**k who couldn't drive worth  .
I have her registration but I blanked it out before posting on here.
Not really worth claiming on insurance as have sourced a fairing upper from a friend in Austria and a fairing frame from ebay.
Now just need a centrestand and the time to prep and respray all the plastic and reassemble.

Thanks for the reply - I would probably have dealt with the issue as you have done.  I did, however, think it worth discussing the MIB for those unaware of that alternative. Glad you are well and have fully recovered enough to start repairs!!
