Small crashed RVF
Hi guys,
A taxi pulled out of nowhere and i made a rookie mistake, i slammed the front brake to prevent hitting him (facepalm), no injuries, just really bruised knee as it was only maybe 20 to 30 km? it was i nthe city during traffic, so more around 20. anyway, the left fairing is scratched and it has been 'flattened', however the bike still starts, runs fine, the gear change pedal is bent in from the impact, but other than that its fine,
should i still get the bike checked out for anything wrong? and should i notify insurance?
many thanks.
