The good news is:And the not so good news is:I was coming home from work yesterday, going round a roundabout (traffic circle), and a car came in from a side road and hit me side on. The bike isn't too bad. It went down on the left side, so the usual stuff: bent shifter, primary and clutch covers scratched and scraped, damage to the clutch lever, footpeg, and saddlebag. It's at the dealer, waiting for the go ahead from the insurance company.

The ankle's not too bad either, although I can't really walk at the moment. Went down the hospital for x-rays today; turns out nothing is broken, just badly swolen. BTW, the doctor was a very dishy young blonde!

I still don't know whether the car hit my ankle, or if the injury is from the bike falling on it.

 

All in all, I would say you came out of it pretty well. Bike's can get fixed, body parts not always so much. Were you wearing good leather boots?

Glad you are OK

Ha! I was at the hospital with the wife. If I'd started taking pics of the doc, I think I'd have been in trouble.

 

You should have asked her if she does in home care!

 

dishy?

Glad you weren't injured worse than you are. Probably going to be sore the next couple of days. The motor bike can be repaired.

Glad it wasn't worse. Good job not pissin' the wife off!

 

Glad you will be ok. Hopefully you won't have any problems with their insurance. Good luck.

 

Glad you are OK, Dr. was a dude without the pics.

 

They are starting to put those roundabouts in around here. Some of my Wisconsin friends call them the Wheel-O-Death. They take some getting used to. Glad you survived.
