slice Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Sorry to hear that mate, hope your not to banged up and the driver gets a rocket up her arse, trouble is probably has no insurance so would not stop even if you were dead (which your not more by luck than judgement) can't help you out with a bike for your DAS but hope you get something sorted by Monday.

wild foamy Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 plaster it everywhere you can bud, local church bulletin board, newspapers, ring around local garages to see if they have had a vehicle matching that description with the damage you describe in for bodywork, someone will rat them out.

Ttaskmaster Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Best wishes for a speedy recovery and hope to find you back in the saddle soon, fella. These things happen to some of us occasionally I'm afraid. Part of the lifestyle. But while bikes can be fixed or replaced, you can't so it's good that you're still here to tell the tale. Don't let it get you down too much. 45,000 is a pretty serious mileage, especially on a 125, so you're clearly doing something right. People who drive like prick-features will eventually come a'cropper one way or the other, so keep posting his description it and you'll either get him in the end or find him upside-down in a hedge where he belongs. Meanwhile, if you go ahead on the DAS, I wish you every success and many more decades of trouble-free riding!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prichard XT Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share Posted July 7, 2013 I had spend a fair bit on it but even just in service parts I have just been buying all the parts for an engine swap now that's gone t waste read though my insurense the bike value is 1200 and my excess is 950 on a TPFT but luckily I whent with MCE and they do excess cover on non fault claims so MCE will only give me 250 pay out and I will have to wait up to 6 months to receive the 950 excess that MCE take off the value gutted I would fix it in a few days but the engine does not sound good which could get expencive and ignitions fucked key doesn't work so I wouldn't leave it any where other than locked up might start looking for a new bike soon Whats an equal in Yam land to a Kawasaki ZX4 (90s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slice Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Just a thought but are there no traffic cameras where this happened? Or even in the direction she buggered off to, might be worth a trip down the same road to see if perhaps someone has a camera in their shop that might have got her on video!!
