Well I'm on the 105E(10 lane freeway) in my own lane, when a suburban in the lane to my right, violently moves to the left. One of those drivers who doesn't blink, and changes lanes so quickly so no one can fill up the hole. I had no time to react, it just happened
The left quarter panel & left rear tire of the suburban hit the right engine fairing & front wheel of my GSXR1000. Which caused the bike to come down on its left side sending me flying. After sliding for a while. I got back up, picked up the bike and moved it to the shoulder. The suburban did stop and stay. Called Nijinsky3(Julie) to come pick up the bike with her truck. She got there very quick
At first I didn't want an ambulance, I didn't think I was hurt anywhere. But after 5mins I felt and noticed swelling just above my left hip. And I was getting dizzy and nauseas. So I took the ambulance ride to ER just to be safe. Nothing broken and no internal injuries, just a contusion(large bruise) above the left hip but belown my ribs. I must have been dizzy from the heat and coming down from the adrelane rush. So I'm fine, just a little sore.
I'm sure the bike is totalled. It doesn't take much to total these bikes. About $5,000 usually will total them.
Haven't seen the police report, takes up to 10 days. My insurance will deal with hers. No witnesses stopped for the police report. Though a very nice guy, Marc, stopped and let me lay down in the bed of his truck. He also helped Julie load the bike in her truck, but he didn't see the accident.
Well, at least I'll be 100% in a couple days and I still have the busa
Oh, I was wearing all my gear. Helmet, gloves, track pants, jacket, and boots. And a backpack. The backpack got the worst of it.
My camera wouldn't work, I'll try to post some pics later.
