Re: accident - NWC


 

Laura,

I've driven a scooter twice in the past year, and had no problem with it.? If you ride a bicycle it's the same, so it's OK...? The front brake is on the right liek a push bike and motor bikes.? The left is the rear brake.

I'm getting a real Burgman, no unfortunately not these massive ones but a 125. Street cred galore? :cool:

Well the CBF250 is going back and being swapped for a real 'scooter'!! All the other bikes are too high. We went through 2 other scooters first, 2 yamahas but they turned out to be as high or even higher.

The cbf wat too high, missing the left mirror and teh clutch was too loose.

Now I've never ridden a scooter before. How difficult is that going to be?? My front brake is going to be where the clutch lever is I believe and the rear brake where the front brake is (right hand).

deary me, the life of a biker who wants to touch the floor properly.

yeah hit from behiind and the side, he drove the indicator off (which is connected by a steel pin which was bent) and scratched the exhaust pipes on the right. The mudguard was completely crumpled up at the top underneath the mudaguard and the backwheel was stuck. I attach a picture. Bike has gone yesterday for inspection etc.

Laura,

???? Sorry top hear about the accident, but at least most of the
damage was limited to the bike, and not you.
???? You say you were waiting to enter a roundabout: does this mean
you were struck from behind?
???? Are you still riding the Sportster?
???? Heal well and quickly,

???? Craig
