Yeah, I'm fine - she claims she's insured too, so it _should_ all work out OK...

Yeah, I'm OK - I'd just slowed for an orange light, I came to a complete stop at the red, some stupid numptie in an old Falcon with her kid and husband/boyfriend/whatever in the car had decided to run the orange - presumably thinking I was going to as well (or failing to notice me at all).

On the way to work yesterday, about 3km from work (specifically, the intersection of Pittwater and Warriewood Rds)
Bloody Mondays, I _knew_ I should have stayed in bed...

That sucks then Big.
At least you walked away and didn't get a ride in a van with lights all over it.
Glad it wasn't the Monster can't write that off it has too many k's on it with too much history.
Hope the repair/replacement will be quick.

Fack, mang. Glad you're ok. That had me worried.
Can you do like we do here --> take it to the local shop and have them either *almost* total it or total it beyond belief, depending on what you want? A swingarm should be fairly easy to replace.
You check the cases for cracks? Where'd you get the brunt?
