My CVO!!!!!
« on: October 30, 2010, 11:23:00 AM »
Got hit by some moron driving a Econoline van on the right side.  Broke my leg in three places but worse I believe totaled my '10 FLHXSE (Tequila) !!  In this case my helmet definitely saved me because I was ejected from the bike and hit my head several times, once on a curb.  One thing I have learned from this experience is that even when you think a person driving a large vehicle sees you, and even when they drive as though they see you, THEY STILL DON"T FRIGGIN' SEE YOU.  So please be careful out there all, and I hope to be back on the road again in about 8 weeks!!  Will post pics of the bike and the xrays soon!!    :nixweiss:

Glad to hear that you will be ok.  It sucks big time to loose a bike, especially when I saw the list of mods you had done to yours.  But, it can be replaced.  Keep us posted on how you are doing.

Glad you are still able to call a moron a moron. You can speed your recovery by looking for parts or a new ride.
