Well never thought it would happen to me but it did. Got taken out by a SUV this weekend on my Road King. Bike is pretty bad but I am alive. Scary **** I must say. Few broken bones surgery scheduled and some stitches. Be careful out there friends. People just don't give a crap about you if you are on 2 wheels.

Crashing sux! Your scoot can be replaced, you can't. Good to hear you made it and maybe you'll end up with a better ride after it's all over.

Glad it wasn't worse than it was. Surgery sucks for sure. I hope all goes well and that you will be back on a new scooter before long.

Best wishes, man!
