My number came up
« on: July 14, 2018, 05:26:10 PM »
Like every one says it’s not if... it’s when. Kid made a left turn on to me, rode it best I could and then he tuned back to the right and that’s when I went down. Other than a banged up elbow and a streached groin think I’m good, Bike just a lill scratched up, rode it home and put ice on the elbow

Scratched bikes can be repaired. Glad you're okay. Heal up fast.

Go to the doctor and get checked, scanned, and X-rayed. While you may feel sore and banged up, there may be other issues.

Glad it wasn’t worse than it is.

I am real happy that you're not hurt any worse than you are but like Mark suggested.......go get checked out.  My personal experiences (several times) is the second day let's you know you were hurt more than you thought.....the third day is it hurts a hell of a lot worse than it did the first day. 

Go get checked out.....that's why we have insurance and hopefully he has his, also.

Also, don't spend time getting caught up in the mind snot.....thinkin well, if I'd have done this or that maybe it wouldn't have happened.  In those spur of the moment decisions, it doesn't much matter what our logical mind thinks, instincts and reaction take over.  Hopefully we have enough training and experience that we'll come out of a given situation better than somebody that doesn't have the training or experience.  :2vrolijk_21:

Happy you walked away from this one. Go get checked out.

HD will replace all the scratched pieces for you. It will only cost the insurance around $5k.

Sorry to read about this and hope your feeling better.
Hope no one has to experience what you did.
It is crazy the way some people drive around here.
 Friday on my way to work there was a guy in a older full size service van texting with both hands, rubbed off the curb a couple times like it for him was normal. I got away from him quick.
Yesterday a guy on a  crotch rocket was texting with his phone stuck to his fuel tank, constantly looking down.
It's not just people in cars doing it.
