Everyone has already said sorry about the bike so I'll just say glad your ok. If it makes you feel any better a cager caused me to down my first Busa the DAY after I picked it up and totalled it with only 160 miles on it.

Is that cager still alive?
I was kinda wondering the same thing. Never can have enough of a space cushion! I can get almost downright claustrophobic on my bike sometimes if cagers are boxing me in too much. Flood them out (slow down so the pass around you and you have more room in front of you) or get to a lane where there is more room around you. Traffic doesn't always allow this, but you can always control the amount of space in front of you.
i guess if your not from long island , this might make sense ! if you are dead on the road people will run you over to get by ! so they dont have to wait on emt and police to clear the road ! you can never leave enough space ! in long island traffic thats asking for an accident , you might as well pull over and wait , and hope you dont get killed by someone using the shoulder to get in front the car ahead of them that has left 20 feet of space open ! if you ride a bike on long island you have to be aggressive and defensive to survive ! and just pray that you dont get caught in a mess ! i think luck has a big part to do with it , and not so much skill ! it is a realy shitty place to ride a motorcycle ! and you need to adapt to the enviroment ! there have been many skilled riders downed here some gone for good , some just crippled for life ! alot of the accidents have nothing to do with rider skill and education ! and alot to do with other sugarbritches not paying attention to what they are doing ! sorry for the rant but there isnt a day that i have ridden that there wasnt at least a dozen sugarbritches that have almost got me ! 1/10 of a second sooner of later ! #### happens !
hehe...... hasnt EVERYONE done that once?OUCH!not like me forgettin the kickstand one sunny day in front of everybody at lunch hour.....
