Craft Helmets crash good

[Slain]

well just got out of hospital, a couple of days ago a car pulled out in front of me and as a result my motard had a nice 60kmh meeting with a camry. touch and go whether the poor retard is a write off. but anyway i was wearing my craft rx33 barracuda, and what a great job it did! covered 5m airborne then hit the tarmac head first and it saved my ass. so for thos of you in doubt, i give craft the thumbs up and once my money comes through i will be buying another one!

Welcome back Slain, pleased to hear your ok ;)

Good safety gear is a lifesaver [8D]

[JackTar]

Can you do the same thing in a cheap one just to do a comparison for us mate?

[Slain]

lol dont think work will appreciate it.
just waiting to hear if the bikes a goner, it will be close to a write off which shits me cos there are no good motards for sale right now :(
cant take pics, my phone is stuffing up after taking a hit :(
got muscle and cartlidge damage in my left knee, cuts to my head from my sunnies and a broken middle finger on my left hand.
spoke to the cops today and some sigh of releif as the bitch is getting charged for undue care and attention.

lol broken middle finger on my left hand.

Was the finger extended as you hurtled through the air as you did the superman impression directed towards the dumb bitch as a last ditch sign of contempt?

Glad your ok......

Spewing about the pics :(

Listen up Slain, for the sake of your compo claim from her insurance..... get someone to photograph everything !!!!!
Your bike damage, all your clothing damage, all your injuries and scars.
Keep photographing your injuries every few days and if they change or get worse.

Keep written records and copies of all correspondence, details of phone calls.
Keep records of all hospital visits , GP visists and all other treatments. Medical costs, what pain meds you need or have to have.
Keep travel records and costs.

Knowing how insurance companies will do their level best to scam you out of what you are entitled too,
so do`nt give them the opportunity to do so.
Speaking from hard experience here mate.

You can still give the one finger salute with your right hand yeah ?? lol

Glad to hear you are ok mate, shame about the bike but you can always buy another one.
If you are looking for legal advice I've got a good bloke here in brissy - he helped me out when I had a similar accident a few years back. Same type of injuries in fact. Don't discount going for legal advice - they do slightly arse rape you with the costs (25% of whatever they get you) but I have no doubt I wouldn't have got half what I did after mine.
Shame it didn't really cover the medical bills and time off work... GL Mate and ditto what HOS said. All good advice.
