Rsser's accident.

[Rum Pig]

Sorry to hear I hope you have a speedy recovery and back on the lathe ASAP

I hope the rest of the year treats you better.

[rsser]

Thanks RP and GJ.

Yeah, the Japan trip is off, and I hadn't been able to organise travel insurance for it before Xmas so that's a double ouch.

[Al B]

Sorry to hear about your accident Ern hope you get well soon mate.

[nalmo]

Bugger!

Hope you heal quickly.

[hughie]

Ouch! Ern, kinda reminded me why I sold my bike. So its a no win all round, no turning, no bike for a bit and no trip to Japan.
I hope it does not aggravate and existing condition.


heres to a speedy recovery

Just came across this thread. Jees Ern, look after yourself.

Never figured you for a Fireblade riding kind of guy from your Avatar, but there you go . Glad it was relatively minor (not that a busted wrist would feel terirbly minor at the time ).

Take it easy, let the wrist heal and gaffer-tape a bowl gouge to the cast - you should be fine

cheers,
Dave

Geez Ern,
Sorry to hear about your prang. And I hope you get some feedback about the clown who nudged you, sometimes they have no idea that there's been contact and wonder where the scratches came from. The bloke that hit me was chased down by a driver behind him, otherwise I would have had to get the bike fixed at my cost!
Cheers, and may 2010 be a better year all round.

Gees, ya look at a thread title and think "Ern's put the chisel through the side of a bowl and everybody's taken the "
Then ya have a read and think "ah shyte"
Ern get better - hope the wrist heals better and stronger then it was.
Hope you eventually find out what actually happened. Hopefully the police report will be enlightening.
Lay back and watch the cricket - but that's pretty depressing!
With the sort of luck you've had I sincerely hope 2010 is heaps better

[Cliff Rogers]

All the best for a speedy recovery Ern.

[Evan Pavlidis]

Good to hear you're alright Ern. Hope your wrist mends well soon.

Cheers, Evan

[rsser]

Thanks guys.

I'm starting on the seriously irritated stage of recovery where temper fracture is the main risk to self and others

The Fireblade was dropped off yesterday by Club mates and there's more damage to the RHS than I'd been told (the Club Secretary describes anything short of a write-off as 'minor cosmetic') . The oggy knob is bent well back; tank dinged; two fairing panels; muffler; mirrors; indicators; fairing nose sub-frame. No frame damage that's visible so it'll be repairable.

OK, it didn't happen without pics so here's one. The plate holding the head of the radius together AFAIK. Reckon we should introduce orthopods to Kreg pocket hole jigs

Ern I meant the bike
