Bloody van drivers

[ukrocket]

After 3 years incident free riding a zx12r (up until xmas when some thieving scumbag nicked it :evil: ) I picked up a 3 yr old CBR600F1 on Saturday.

This evening, while driving along Brook St in Brentwood, I was filtering past traffic but still keeping to my side of the road. Anyway, mister {EB} Head in a white van coming in the opposite direction decides he also wants a share of my lane.

End result being that he caught the side of me, ripping the front off my right boot and putting a nice dink into my exhaust.

As you can imagine, I am rather ****ed about it but to make matters worse I had my wife on the back. She is now extra nervous about me having the bike.

Bastard van driver didn't even stop but I should have expected that.

Ah well, just means I'll have to get that new can a bit earlier then I hoped for.

Bad luck.

[Spider]

[Biker Dude]

[Tark]

Attempted Murder eh!

Thats pretty serious!

[Spider]

ARRRRR enough with the lectures and looks! ok, i did sumink silly but it was in the heat of the moment how many stories do u hear of bikers getting knocked off by cars etc! or caused to crash!

my mate james was coming up to a round about where he had right of way and was bout to turn to a turjning and a car thrashed p[ast him and caused him to crash and he just drove off didnt help him up or stop! nor did 2 cars that just drove round him, and all the copps want to do is pull us ova and do us for speeding etc or small number plates etc! well today i got my own back and im proud of what i did and im not going to show remourse i thought u lot of all people would understand! how many times have you wanted to get ur own back on the dam cage drivers!

[Tark]

Ok. You can have your opinion.

I was just warning you as I dont want to see you get into trouble.

[Biker Dude]

dude.....chill im not saying what u did was entirely a bad thing...but advertising it on here isnt the cleverest thing to do when u know that there are coppers on the forum!

[Dan]

agreed.

[Spider]

[Spider]

lol well yer coppers but biker coppers and in my opinion they rule! (pete) and well a post on an internet forum is not sufficent evidence! as it could be bull**** etc! or summink along those lines i cnt remebr what mr policeman tld me! and tark attempted murder whats that bout!> i dnt remebr posting that1

[Tark]

Never mind.

You said he tried to kill you.

But enough on this subject now.
