I was on the blue/white R1 2 metres from the Busa when he got hit.. Young girl ran a red light (atleast 5 sec after it changed red) and I had to hit the brakes hard to avoid her hitting me, the bloke on the Busa next to me hit her almost head on.
Not a very good sight to see especially when it's right next to you, makes me want to start driving the cage into work, especially around this time of year!
The Busa (1EV-***), Gordon, was in alot of pain but is not seriously injured at this stage, he was taken to the hospital.
Plenty of witnesses saw the accident and the police took a few statements.
Heal fast Gordon! If you're on here let me know if you need anything.

Jesus christ... rough day for that bloke![]()
Hope he heals up quick.
Glad to hear you're ok. My daughter saw the results of your accident and was fearful for the worst. She painted a very bad picture.
Get well Gordon.

Its good to see that someone knew their motorcycle first aid and looked after Gordon properly. Also good to see he was wearing the proper safety gear.
Maybe it was a long prophesised hint that things will only get worse for us now that marked motorcycle bays have been removed from carousel.

Heard from my dad what happened too. He was on a bike as well. Stupid people. Notice how this one wasn't at speed either? Hope the matter is sorted properly and she learns from this.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery for Gordon.

Problem this time of the year is that all the dicks that can't drive think that it is time to get in the cage and head off down to the shops. Same as when it rains all the idiots that normally catch the bus get in their cars and head off. They can't drive for shit. And then you get the drivers that think they can do as they want or are away with the fairies when they drive, when they hit someone on a bike they say "I didn't see him/her" yea and the reason you didn't is because you weren't looking you dick. It should be instant disqualification of licence for saying that shit.
Hope Gordon gets well real soon, all the best mate.
So did she run the red turning across the intersection to head down Liege St (Passed HJs) As the busa and r1 took off on their green light. She hits Gordon and then careens off into the traffic pole in the middle on the island on Liege?

Gordon Wright, scottish bloke, very late 40's from Kelmscott with a dark blue Busa?
..... Fuck, I think it was him.
Stupid fucking b****
It shits me off seeing people blatantly run reds. Hope she gets a monster fucking pineapple. Spikes first.

So many people running red lights. I was out on the bike today for only about 20 minutes in to CBD and back. I saw 2 cars blatantly run reds and it seemed like every car i pulled up next to the driver was busy tapping away on the smart phone. This shit is just getting worse and worse.
Hope you are not too hurt Gordon - really sucks.
I was on my way to Babies R Us and took Liege st. I saw a Busa but didn't look too banged up. Heal well Gordon.
I totally agree with what you guys are saying. I see approx. 1 in 10 cars some stupid people either using their smartphone or blatantly have their right hand next to their ear talking on the phone. I bet you this stupid b**** didn't even notice the red light because she was too busy talking to her girlfriend about what color shoes she's gonna wear for christmas. - Red is fine as it matches the christmas theme....also RED MEANS STOP!!!
"I'm sunk so deep that I can't get out...."
Pretty much, a bus before her ran the red light and then she came through at a bit of speed.. she hit with enough force to send the bike in the opposite direction it was heading and take out a traffic light.
Yeah, that sounds like him.. Are you a friend of him? is he okay?
Straight roads are for fast bikes - corners are for fast riders!

Get well soon Gordon.
