My friend Dave ( original owner of my ZR1100 ) was riding his '02 triumph T100 Bonneville into work today. As he came to Rt 309 and made a full stop, the driver behind him hit the back wheel and knocked him over.

He said, " I came to a stop and as I looked south bound, I suddenly saw blue sky then the pavement.

The driver pushed the back fender into the tire and when it fell over, it broke off the "tab" on the shifter and broke the ball off the end of the clutch lever. He banged his elbow into the pavement but other than that, no injuries.

That's the bike "pre crash". It's an Anniversary Edition and they didn't make too many in '02. The factory burnt down and they lost a lot of bikes.

I'm sure I'll get a full report on the damage tomorrow but he pulled the fender out and rode back home ( 1-1/2 miles ) and then rode his KZ650 into work.

edit-- the driver was a woman and he said the only good part was she had big tits.
