Interesting ride to Bondi

[monstermick58]

Good advice from all of the above, why dont you visit your doctor and get a check over and tell them its from a accident, that way it will definately generate a police report.

Now, I just got my bike back from a similar incident, I was insured with Insure my ride, and they were very pro-active with me and the bike went to a bike repair shop called Collide-ascope, they are up at Asquith, but they did a wonderful job on my bike, it looks brand new, I also claimed my helmet (mate you gotta do that as you dont know if it took a hit or not) and my Draggin' jeans as the ambo's cut them off me, I took some photos of both and sent them to the insurance company and they paid without hesitation.

Hope this helps and good luck with it.

I'd have to agree about seeing the Doc. You may feel OK, but over the next day or two there may be a few things you start to notice ... if things have been bumped, pushed or pulled in the wrong way it may take a while to show. You don't want to say you are fine but then find yourself at the physio (or whatever) later on.

Quick question on the blingy bits:
If you have the items listed on the policy and the incident is not your fault what is covered / how is it handled?

That was my initial response reading this as well. You never what might start to 'hurt' or just 'twinge' in a couple of days. Just good to cover off that side of things. I also reckon it's a write-off based on your description, but then that can be negotiated with insurance sometimes - especially if you stand to lose money.

Sorry to hear about it Gino, but very glad that you aren't seriously hurt. Take care all.

OK. Thanks everyone for all the support and info. Given me lots of motivation to get it all happening!There is an issue starting up with a toe so off to the doctor.I installed an LED panel in the rear tail light (really bright) and wear a red Ducati jacket but all thats useless if the dumb make the beast with two backs was'nt watching!You lose points speeding etc but you lose nothing doing something like nearly killing someone.Starting to think i should of called the cops at the scene.!I guess there was a bit of shock involved so was'nt thinking right.people stopped and gave me their number as witnesses. Had my camera so took photo's.Any way hope its not long till im back riding !

Yes Gino in hindsight maybe you should have called the cops if only to get them to check out the knobhead driver and get yourself a police report for insurance. Hope you have now been to see them.

But looks like you've got a lot of other important bits in order.  Well done.

Unless I'm very mistook, I think I heard Justo saying he already has that feature on his 696

Yep that , a rocket launcher "with a mobile phone homing device" (cause it would of hit him right in the head) and one of those things Dr Who used to use. Hit the button and your gone !
