RT-S Wrecked

[DeeKay53]

Had an accident yesterday on my RT. :gaah: Got rear ended by a Ute (pickup) in the rain on my way to a club event in Sydney. Some idiot in front stopped suddenly and the Spyder brakes worked a charm. The car behind didn't stop in time and got me.
Lucky I was on the RT. it saved my life.:clap:
I am pretty sure the RT will be a write off. The tow bar wa pushed into the back wheel and all the support brackets were riped out and bent. The tyre was blown and all the plastic at the back has been smashed and brocken away. Sorry no pics.
I was taken to hospital for a check up and fortunatly am OK.

Looks like a new 2011 model for me now, which one to choose!!!!!

Sure dont want to 'be there" but guess it is a very good recommendation for a Spyder RT !

Glad you're okay. Sorry the RT is wrecked but maybe a 2011 will cure all the problems.

Hey Danny, glad you are OK.
I thought you might be at the Ulysses AGM in Newcastle, but I guess not now.
Keep us posted how your claim goes.
There is a cheap RT-S PE and trailer at CMC.
Cheers

HI Danny

Really glad your still in :clap: GREAT SHAPE, now you have time to get on a plane next month, and come to SPYDERFEST in CUBA, and get one of the 5 SPYDERFEST bikes that will be there. :2thumbs:

 

[retired1]

Sorry to hear about the RT. Glad you weren't hurt. I think I would be tempted to get the Red and install a HMT light.
