Bad luck, hope you are OK, frame will straighten in a motoliner jig if its bent. Hope the crank is ok. Makes a good case for the engine bars we all used to put on!

Some piccies of SP`s bike.

Apart from both side casings being smashed as well as the pick ups, the genny looks okay thankfully as the engine must have stopped pretty quickly after the bike was hit.

As you will see the clocks took the brunt of the damage and the scrape on top of the grab rail means that the wheels must have been pointing skyward at some point :shock:
