Hey everyone

Just had a crash today, wheels locked and sent me into a wall. Front bumper is destroyed, radiator burst, license plate smashed, the front left wheel isn't turning and most of the plastics are shattered. :( Proper sad times.

Not that fast, its just punctured the radiator and the front left wheel wont turn properly.. Don't know whether it's the strut arm, suspension or the hub. Cheers for replying, my back is aching like a hoe.

Doesn't look major, all bolt on bits so easy enough to fix.

If the wheels not turning it maybe a damaged steering rack or tracking rod. you wont know till you've had a good poke around

ps: ot having abs can be a real bitch lol

Cheers everyone, cheered me up a lot. I'm going to start looking tomorrow hopefully, first ever crash including a year of riding a motorbike.
