5mph maybe, got cut off in a parking lot. By some IDIOT on a cell phone trying to get to Starbucks. Bike went down. Gad I hate Komiefornia, here visiting family for the holidays. Shoulder is sore, the armored jacket did its job as did the full face helmet.
Well at least injuries to body and bike are minor. Did the drive get held accountable?
But those type drivers are everywhere. And they are just young people. Almost got hit in my dually truck by a cell phone driver who ran a stop sign and turned left as I was turning right. Somehow I knew she was gonna do that, and I hit the brakes.
Great to hear you are ok except for some 'minor' injuries!
I hope you have some decent insurance- so you can get yourself back on the road.
Wish you all the best of luck with your bike and yourself!
It coulda been worse!! My own fault for trusting that she was going to turn left...I knew better...lol. gotta repair the cracked fairing and the windshield broke. I have everything but the front crash bar. But those are easy to find.
