MY HWY CRASH!!!!!!
Im not sure why, a million times before, this has happened, and I throttle through and the car/van/ truck is a memory... but this time...I grabbed a fistful of front brake and the bike stood up and that was that... Live and learn luckily. None of my gear survived, but damn well did its job! 2 broken ribs and broken right hand where the van struck me.
The spot (see the water bottle given to me by one of the witnesses) a week later

Bike's a write off, both insurers found the second party at fault and covered my vehicle for a VERY fair sum ( Guess all that polishing for 6OTM helped convince the adjuster my bike was worth as much I thought it was in my delusional head lol)
Im all good, this happened last Thursday, already found an 06 636 with 11 k flawless I'm getting on Friday, than I can just stare at it until I loose this cast! Until than, some quality time with my kids thanking my lucky stars....(and sore ass)
PS. Wife's been a fucking Champ through out the whole thing so I owe her a shout-out!
Stay safe !!!!
