I'm improving every day now, still sore but much better.

I was thinking of stripping it down and flogging the bits on fleabay, but I don't really think I have the time or space, so I figure I'll remove a couple of goodies that are undamaged and flog the rest complete. Also got loads of extra bits for it that I'll sell on aswell.

I have had a thorough look at the road surface about 5 hours after the event, but could not find any trace of anything that shouldn't be there. The only thing I have noticed is that there's coolant all over the tyres, which may have caused it, but it may very well have got there as a result of the crash itself. I don't think I'll ever know what caused it, which is rather irritating, but such is life.

If the frames straight, headstock good, swingarm straight etc (all the bits that matter) I'd consider taking the lot of ya...

Depending on price and what 'goodies' you take off that is :)

Glad to hear you're ok mate....just a thought, have you checked the floor where the bike was parked for any tell-tale drips/spots?
Bikeless again :/
