I'm fine.

On my way back from the City, i was changing lanes on liverpool street and a second later a brand new black Commodore SV6 decided to come into my lane and hit me side on :shock:

I managed to keep the bike upright, but his front end/ wheel hit my right knee and parts of my bike.

I think he hit the metal plate on my knee, cos it's fine :lol:

Victorian driving a QLD plated new hire car :roll:

Now i have to wait for the insurance company's to fight it out and work out who's at fault. I do have a witness and i'm sure he is at fault, so we will have to wait and see.

If i get unlucky with the verdict i think i might not fix it as its not that bad, but i'm sure its going to be more than my excess :roll:

Anyway. I hope 2009 gets better from here on 8)

shit mate I am glad you are OK.

what damage was done to the bike. As long as you were in your lane then you should not be at fault unless his lane was ending then you need to give way.

Did he admit fault?
