Bloody hell!
And you even found the (Stupidly) misplaced horn button in plenty of time. Terrible as it is, you will cream them on the insurance, no two ways. just glad you survived the accident intact

Man that's a very hard impact!!! I was expecting to see a lot less given your condition and attitude. Way to go bro, you can't delete that, it's priceless holms I know it's hard for you to watch but very educational for us pussy's who probably wouldn't have been so cool about it. You rocked that lady good, give it to her man.... BOOM!!!!!
Go watch the Cubbies win the series, have a couple beers and think about putting that back up. You need that video so I hope you are not serious about wiping it off the camera. Back it up, name it 'five zero' for your grand kid when he wants a motorbike.
That's the kind of dent I want to leave in someone's door if I'm going down.
Chief say's... you are the man!

I would encourage you to repost the video and make it public. It could be a help to others and maybe serve to bring some good out of a bad situation./quote]
Ditto. I typically don't watch crash videos, but knowing that it turned out relatively okay for you, I would like to learn from it. Any chance it could be posted again?

Ohhh....no, Sorry to read that this happened to you Drew (geez, I don't even want to say what it is). I hope you heal real fast and that you wake from this nightmare as quickly as it began.
(I missed seeing your video too...maybe that's a good thing?)

I will now see long shadows in front of me as absolute certainty i'm invisible to merging cross traffic. In Chicago streets run east and west from lake Michigan until you are in the boonies. In the early morning heading west and sunset heading east... long shadows. Thanks Drew for the post, every incident has a story and rarely caught on camera so clearly.

Good decision.

Exactly. I'm sure we all can wait (at least a little while ).
Get to feeling better, that's the main ingredient, what counts towards going forward

Sorry to hear about that. I missed seeing the video but it obviously wasn't any fault of yours. Hope you get things sorted quickly and are back out there soon.

p.s made it back ok from picking mine up today in the lashing rain
You road your new PCX home from the dealer in the rain what a man, what a man! I had mine delivered because traffic scares the crap out of me on a first run.
Yep Drew is like... Sergeant Major Plumley, ain't no pussy. Crash like a man and still be standing up. BOOM! five zero, respect it
