>you know the club where if you ride a motorcycle you either have gone down or will!
I was riding my 2004 CBR 1000RR with a passanger and we got hit by a car turning out in front of me. I was doing about 30-35 mph, but the sudden stop set my passenger flying along with me, but I bounced off the car. She broke her collar bone, and I sprained my wrist, bruised elbow (other arm), and both got numerous cuts and scrapes. I'm glad we were both wearing helmets, long pants, gloves, and boots.
We are both fine, but my bike is a total loss.
Now is the waiting game for the insurance.
First accident since I got my license in 1984.[/align]

first crash in 23 years... good work! You should be proud that you made it that long before you had an accident. At least it was a crash that you were able to walk away from.

Took you long enough to join the club I can't stand when people either don't look or look right through you. I almost went over the hood of a car twice last week....and I don't even commute or ride in very much traffic!
Well, sucks to hear. Good thing is it's time for an 07 1000RR after you're all back together.
