Squealing Tires and Broken Plastic
10 years ago
Well, I've got some bad news to report. This past Monday, I was involved in a motorcycle-on-car incident. A driver turned in front of me from the oncoming lanes in an intersection, and stopped in the middle of the road. I locked up the rear, but couldn't stop fast enough, and glanced off their front bumper. Luckily, it was low speed and I escaped with mostly scrapes and bruises, and a hairline fracture in my left hand. The 1200 has some pretty heavy cosmetic damage, and as-of-yet unidentified steering damage. The forks could have just turned in the clamps, or they could be bent. I won't know and can't mess with it until the other driver's insurance takes a look.
