Same thing happened to a friend of mine on a standard Bonneville 3 weeks ago.
He makes a left turn at a HUGE intersection only to find a car crossways and sitting in his lane after he makes the turn - teenage girl trying to merge into traffic going back to the same intersection he just came through, making a left turn from a parking lot. She should have gone down the parking lot a bit further away from the intersection before trying to make a left turn out of it into traffic backed up at the light....
Her GEICO INS. is paying off like a slot machine though. He chipped a bone in a finger on his right hand laying the bike down. Locked up the rear, he said.
Primary cover, muffler, various bits totalling over $2500.00 so far on the bike alone.
Just glad you are both all right.
