Glad to hear you are on the mend. My son got hit head-on by an F-150 driven by a drunk. He was in Dodge Ram 2500 and still ended up with a broken right foot, right knee, right hand and right wrist.(kind of like he locked up on the steering wheel and brake pedal just before the impact). Took about 4 months to recover pretty well. That was 3 years back and he doesn't even have a limp anymore.

Hope your recovery is as complete!!

PS - Love to have your helmet lock if there is a key to go with it.

I've still got a steel rod in my right upper arm from January, 1984. Lived to ride again. Looking at the asphalt gouges on my white helmet back then sure made a wear-it-every-single-time helmet fan out of me, though.

Reply #18 - 02/04/10 at 05:25:54 glad to hear your alright i Hate FORDS but a 1975 f-150 actually saved my sisters life when she was 17. got hit head on by a '76 cadillac doing 80 in a 30 mph zone and came into her lane the hood stayed straight everything else ended up in the cab and pinned her legs and her face looked just like E.T :'(

Scary sometimes being out there with the troglodytes that forget there are others on the road. Hope ya heal up right as rain and get better soon. Ya never really lose the will to ride but something like this can dampen that spirit for a while. Hope you get a huge settlement!!

Reply #23 - 02/25/10 at 12:10:03 wasn't a f150, but a mint condition 1960 ford falcon, driven by a 80yr lady. Fortunately i only got a sprained ankle as the bike went oneway and i the other. Get better soon and don't let it stop you from riding!

So I'm walking on my own now. I went to go see the bike today and the tank is trashed and the right fork is bent. The spokes in the front rim are all broken, so I am going to let the towing company have it. I still have all the stuff I originally posted. All of it is going to be sold at whatever you think it's worth plus shipping. Just pm with what you want. windshield and filters are spoken for as of now. Sorry this isn't in the marketplace section, but technically the rubber literally hit the road on this one. lol p.s. as soon as I can afford one I'll buy another savage. Grin
