Just shows how easy it is to loose the front end on Diesel. Good to see rider up and about.

It was good to see him up and walking. It was going to take some effort to get that bike out from under that guard.

You can see why they should double up the Armco. If he had hit the uprights it could of taken a limb off. On a motorway slip road near me a man was cleavered from shoulder to crotch by an upright. He must have been motoring but scary to think about it. That road now has double decker Armco.

Mental Note to Self:  Kill engine, THEN pick up luggage.

I'm not sure why he needed to hit the kill switch, it's an FZ6, it has a tip-over sensor which should automatically kill the engine.

Still, glad to see he was ok. I bet from now on he'll be watching out of odd coloured lines on bends... :(

I thought you were going to say, "I'm not sure why he needed to hit the kill switch, it's an FZ6 and therefore not worth saving"   :lol
