Binned it.......

Post by BarryH »

.......in hastings, threw it up the road. Minor damage and luckily no panel damage. Killed the Leo Vince on the left hand side. Think I came out worse than the bike.

I see you had your wrist screwed and plated.
I was born with nothing and I still have most of it left.

aye the bloody cast is real enough, its getting right on my tits. can't even work on the bike properly. it should be off in about six weeks unless I can find the dremmel. broke the scaphoid in my wrist so that means no more Image for a while.
I've been getting all the bits needed to repair it. david silver has made a fortune out of me!

Everyone screws up sometimes.

Hope the rebuild's going ok.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
