Soft Tarmac, Bike over

[Kevp]

Had to dart down to Worthing this afternoon.

Decided to take bike. Was there n back in no time.

Did last call at 7.30pm. Parked bike on customers drive.
Came back bike on side. The side stand had sunk well in to tarmac.
Unfortunately I had placed my helmet next to bike. It now looks like a smashed boiled egg!! DOH

Bad news, hows the bike? Don't like the sound of that helmet I would have thought it could take more than a bike falling on it to cause cracking to that extent.

Just what I was thinking. What sort of helmet is it?

I was under the impression that they were suposed to do that to a certain extent. i.e be "self defeating" in order to disperse forces.

However I have probably got it completely wrong in any case it sounds like anew helmet is needed what bike you got?

Ok. maybe a slight exageration on the helmet.
But you get the idea and the helmet is still shot.

Bikes a milie rsv.
Has R&G mushrooms but the helmet whent between them. only decal damage front & rear with replacment rear indicator needed.

Helmet is AGV X-vent
