Bad luck Stu, I did exactly the same many years ago on my brand new Jap hairdryer, 'Dying to get out over Xmas and a kid ran out from behind a stationary bus and I had two choices, hit kid or hit deck' Hit the kid would have been the cheaper option, but hey what the hell, got rid of it and bought the 'very-loud' Duke shortly afterwards. Chin-up mate, look at all those crashes the GP guys do on track, cartwheeling theirs bikes, makes you feel better. Andy |
