Hi All. Well I am now sad. My much loved 2007 Speedy is a bit of a mess. A driver pulled out on me and I could not get stopped in time. Have hit him at reasonably slow speed. The forks are bent and the front wheel buckled. What sort of cost am I looking at to repair that area. Minor scratches on mirrors etc I can put up with for a while but need to replace forks and front wheel.
Thanks in advance

Don't know how it works in Australia, but here in the U.S. if the other driver is at fault their insurance will pay to have your ride repaired. If they have no insurance then you're insurance will pay if you have uninsured motorist coverage. If you pay for it yourself you're looking at a fairly hefty bill.
Sorry it happened, hope all goes well for you. Paw
