Re: SWB rider down
bummer mate
i know theres not been much good news and this isnt a great help but you can order the r&g bung singlely direct from there or maybe even a dealer,doubt they do a free replacement.
i'd definately follow layne and moose's advice and get it proffesionally checked over before doing owt else

Re: SWB rider down
Sorry to hear it Si, gutted for you
As said as long as you're ok but then your not cos your bikes broke.
What about insurance, especiely if not your fault.
R&G bolts are designed to bend so they don't snap on impact.

Re: SWB rider down
Let me know if I can do anything mate. As i said on the phone keep the foot elevated and in a cold pack it'll be fine just man it up.
I'd check the frame around the R&G too as sometimes they can bend the frame.
Can always use the R6 at llandow and pembrey mate, no problem.

Good thing your ok, sounds like he did go over the front if the disc is broken 
Hope you get a quick, proper & bargain repair.

Re: SWB rider down
Oh no simon. Sorry to hear this.
I hope the bill isn't too bad and you are ok. Honestly, was it 10mph? When I crashed my car I said it was at 40mph, (no skidmarks to confirm) it was nearly double that.
Your other post that you made in the rideout section now makes sense!
EDIT: Incorrect english!
