That sucks dude, more so because that POS didn't stop or anybody else. What kind of humans or sorry excuses for them are out there? Anyways, I have spit, grit, and lots of duck tape so let me know.

[ROBsS4R]

Stories like this seriously tick me off.

I am glad you are okay. Hopefully this scum bag wont reproduce.

[swampduc]

Man, glad you're ok. That could have been a LOT worse. Good luck with the bike.

[rule62]

Sorry to hear the news.  Glad you're okay. 

Hey... I've got a left side stock rear-set/exhaust hanger if you need it.  It's silver though, not black.  PM me you're address and I'll send it right to you.

[GLantern]

I'm so sorry to hear this that is absolutely horrible, hope you are ok!  Just relax and i agree you should file a police report and stake out that area and see if the guy comes by again.  Get his plates and information etc.  I think a hit and run is a felony correct?

  Thanks for all the well wishes guys and gals.
I can't say enough about how great this place really is.   to all of you.
 I've been bustin my ass trying to get this thing ready for show and tell at DIMBY in Sept and now this happens.
 I've cooled off and taken another look to determine the extent of the damage.

Here's the lowdown.

Handle bars and left hand controls are FUBAR, Good time to look into those clipons i've been wanting. Will need levers as well.
Three of the four turn signals are broken, also have replacements/upgrades in mind.
Left side rearset/exhaust hanger is shot. Replacement already in the works. (thks rule62)
Will need a complete shift lever and linkage assy.
Tank has a new "character" dent that will need repaired.
  Now.......If anyone happens to know someone that paints ducs. Not to be naming names (cough)ducpainter(cough). I could use with thier services.

Momma always said to use every opportunity to modify.

He didn't hit me, I didn't give him the chance, i chose grass and dirt over bumper and windshield.

[BastrdHK]

Damn!....glad you walked/rode away.  I also have blinkers if you need them.  I have clipons if your interested.  Now think about the sweet ass custom paint job you get to put on your tank 

[DucLeone]

glad to hear you didn't get hurt to bad,
ppl on the wheel do suck no question about it

[CMDRDAVE]

Good to hear you are OK.  Too many stories of people going down lately (not a reference to your avatar)  People need to take responsibility for their actions.  This kind of stuff just gets me fired up.

There doesn't need to be physical contact to be a hit and run...

[z0mb1e_DUC]

glad your OK. SUX about the bike.

FYI, even tho he didn't actually "hit" you, he caused the accident.  He left the scene of an accident, & that is a crime.  File a report.  Given the coffee, that is probably his daily route. You will see him again.  Either that, or Karma will get him eventually...

[HeyThatsMyBike]

First! Glad you're okay!  Stupid people man... Can't believe he saw you go down and didn't pull over to see how you are!!! Freaking unbelievable!!!

[ducatiz]

There doesn't need to be physical contact to be a hit and run...

this is 100% true.

if he steered you off the road either intentionally or unintentionally, it is a failure to maintain safe lookout and leaving the scene.

you're not required by law to be hit in order for it to be a "hit and run"
