Came off the bike today. I slid down the road and the bike hit a car. Write off and I've got a fractured humerus as a bonus.

Pissed off beyond words. Don't know if I'll be back on a fzr1000 again...I certainly won't be on mine.

isn't it funny that a fractured humerus isn't funny. Sorry...... at least you're still ere to write about it chap. Hope you have a speedy recovery.

Would I be wrong in thinking you may have come off your kawasaki 400. instead of your lovely fzr1000 exup?

If you have crashed the exup, well I'm really sorry to hear that John.

After all that hard work you've put in to it. No wonder you're pissed off mate.

The good news is you're still with us.

That sucks!
Glad you managed to come off slightly better than the bike. It sounds a right mess.
I know you must be at an all time low after all the time, money and effort you have put in and then for this to happen.
Get well soon mate.

Really sad to hear that banner. I hope the arm heals well. We all know s*** happens sometimes but it's never good to hear about.

Glad you're ok. If you are rebuilding and find parts here on the US ebay site that are generally cheaper but they won't ship to the Uk, you can ship it to my house and I'll ship it on. Just let me know before and I'll let you know what the shipping cost would be, then you can work out if it's worth it.

Jesus. That is a mess

Good thing is you're here to talk about it.
After all the effort you've put into it, its worth saving.

Not sure if you're interested but this 94 seems to have all the bits, just needs the right person.
