Welp...was gonna run to town to pick up some parts for my truck on my cruiser Dec 9th, and some old lady merged over on me in my lane and bumped me off the road. Locked brakes down and slid straight into sidewalk curb in the middle of town and crashed as soon as I hit the curb. Don't remember any of it. Was in hospital for 5 days, and laid up for a couple weeks as home therafter. Had bad concussion with brain bleed, few randome cuts on elbow, knee, and ankle. Almost back to 100% now though, so it's all good. Could have easily been worse, so I can't complain. Was wearing half helmet too, no idea how it didn't mess up my face, but it beat that helmet all to hell.
Bike isn't destroyed but already got insurance estimate and it will be a total loss. So I will have to figure out what cruiser to get next. Thinking about a Kawi Vulcan Vaquero 1700, the bigger brother to the Nomad 1600 I crashed.
