COOL -- THANKS GUYS
well I pulled the fender. Rim is bent a bit (not bad but bent) and the tire has some damage on one side (almost a bubble).. Hope that is all I need to deal with.. I think the tire bubble is my wobble. I will need to do some work to finalize issues. After work

Cheers

Glad you didn't go down, dude! Of all places for a wheelbarrow to fall off a truck, it had to be right in front of you.

Glad you kept control of the bike...that had to increase the pucker factor..
I may have pinched a hole in my leather seat...and then had to change my shorts..

Good luck fixin the scoot.

Yes, glad to hear you are alright. I went to change lanes the other day and did nat have a good view of what was ahead on the right side of this semi adn right before I started to slide over we passed a mattress that had falled out of someone truck. I thought to myself "Thank God I waited 10 more seconds to start the lane change". Never know what you will run into out there!!!!

Glad your still with us! The biker Gods must have been watching over you that day! $500.00 deductable is a tough break but cheaper than long stay in the hospital. Maybe the wheel can be adjusted back to round by adjusting the spokes as long as the rim is not bent.

ON THE ROAD AGAIN -- Walnut Creek Harley put on a new tire and did some magic to my rim (not perfect but no wobble.. $250.. My bike has that james dean look[:-] I need a new front fender and accesories..
What a day.. As for pucker power - nothing really - rode the (harley barrel) snow mobile to the side of the road got off and did some adjusting off to work.. Now the pucker came when I told the wife---- OUCH STILL IN PUCKER MODE... She's real quite??? scarry stuff.



Cheers All

i had to straddle a ladder once in my daily driver on the GSP doing 85 MPH

that being said whenever i see a work/ construction truck with loose **** on it that looks like it may take flight i either take a different lane or back wayyyyyyyyyyyyy off

THAT being said i am glad you are OK!
