I'm glad you & your bike are (relatively) ok.
I would never buy a BMW car, the ones around here ALL have faulty turnsignals; they are never on...

Glad you're OK, bike can be repaired. I always tell people....it's not a question of if, it's a question of when and how bad. Hope you stay safe when you get back on the road!

Glad you’re ok.

But....as someone that was in a left turn in front of me accident (other vehicle’s fault), I say, F-that. It’s the BMWs insurance’s problem. If it were me, I think I’d try to find the azzhat and squeeze until dry.

His bumper fell completely off? Something doesn’t add up or the pictures arent doing this incident justice.

Your are very lucky you didn't lose your leg or foot in a crash like that.
I say lucky, but that's not the best term I guess.
Hope you heal up quickly and get the bike back soon.

I'm glad you're OK, most importantly. Since it's a hit n run, I wonder if the cops will check area cameras for the scumbag. So many cameras today, he's got to be on a few.
