Well, - - until two Saturdays ago, I had a BMW System 5 Flip-up helmet. Nice bright, shiny red one - only used it for three weeks total from new.
Saturday 17th September, 10:45am. I was on my way to the travel agency to put my new passport photos in for a visa for my up-coming holiday to Viet Nam.
Didn't make it. :(
Riding along Albany Hwy into Perth, this stupid, young, dumb, blond IDIOT woman traveling the opposite direction, turned right across my path then stopped blocking the lane I was traveling in.
Result - broken ribs on my RH side, huge bruise on my right hip and shoulder, one BMW helmet totally written off - the right side from the visor back, has been smashed in and after spending all those months re-building my ST1100 - another $3,000 - $3,500 (PLUS) worth of replacement of panels, painting, etc. - - AGAIN !
Holiday put back until the start of December - if I am fit enough to travel by then.
And another new helmet
Now all I have to do is find a way to nicely ask the WA Police Accident people if they will be so kind as to charge that stupid . . . >:(
Any advice from members of our happy little group, who could give me advice about how to go about doing this would be REALLY appreciated.
