Money well spent Robbo.
Darren did mine not so long ago and it was remarkable the difference it made.

Wouldn't it be great if it was a runner!!!
Something to look forward to in really old age 

Poole bike night a few weeks ago. Loads of cool bikes but the standout was a custom Harley chopper - COOL 

Does that road have No Entry signs to stop people turning in there in the first place?

Absolutely amazing job mate.
£249, count me in for one please 

Thanks for the replies gents.
As always,very helpful & supportive.

I can hold my hand on my heart and say I am genuinely a "live & let live" kind of person.
I hold no malice or ill towards any other normal person who feels, and lives, the same way.
The important part here is "let live" and, I also believe, that these two won't stop doing this sort of thing until either they get killed or someone else does.
Better one, or both, of them than someone else, including me.

Hey Foccers


Just want to start by saying how touched I am by all your messages of support and goodwill.
It doesn't half restore your faith in biking when genuine bikers come together to support a fellow biker like this.


A BIG personal thank you to Paul for all his support, encouragement and help during a really difficult time.
You're one of the best mate and I am soooooooo glad I found you as a friend.


Just to let you all know I am healing really well; up and about walking with virtually no pain or limp and my dislocated right thumb is feeling a lot better with the swelling all but gone and flexibility returning by the hour.


My overriding feelings right now are that I am extremely lucky to be alive or not more seriously injured, coupled with being very angry at the drunken dickheads on the Fireblade who ploughed into me.
The rider walked away nearly unscathed having discharged himself from hospital the same day.
His only real injury, apparently, was a huge diagonal tear across his arse caused by the battery terminals he was sat on as their bike didn't have a seat fitted - they were sitting on the bare sub-frame!!!
The pillion, without a helmet, not so lucky as the last I heard he was in an induced coma for his head injuries and the police were still not sure whether he was going to pull through or not.


Gutted that my Virago is wrecked but I think it actually saved my life by being so solid and heavy and coming off best against the Fireblade in the "head to head" contest and flipping it into the air and over my flying body as I went over my handlebars.
I think I have been very, very lucky.


The rider might be feeling lucky too but it doesn't look too good for him in that the police are definitely going to prosecute, either for dangerous driving or something much worse depending on what happens to the guy in the coma.
They are also waiting for the results of blood tests for drink & drugs - they were both extremely pissed for sure and probably drugged up too.
Either way, he'll be going back to prison, where, apparently, he has already been before.


So, it's all better than it might have been and, once again, thank you one & all for your kind thoughts & support.
It means a lot and helps a great deal.

He wasn't talking about the Trumpet!! 

Don't know about other old Foccers, but this one doesn't do Facebook!!
