James came off the race scoot at the track day we had at Cadwell on Friday.

He was following a power ranger on a Ducati who had a tank slap but forced James off at Chris Curve

Here's a few pics of the damage,but thanks to Chris Geyton we got it sorted after a few hours.

He damaged the headset and rim,bent the legshields slightly,bent both right hand frame struts,twisted both rear runner boards,cracked both panels(they were spares anyway),broke end can from exhaust,cracked seat unit,twisted left hand rear runner board strut,broke steering stop,split hydraulic brake hose.

Can't believe how the mudguard didn't get damaged


Oh yeah and he broke his right ankle but this wasn't discovered until Sunday night after he went to hospital.He'd been in a slight bit of pain over the weekend,lager and painkillers soon sorted him out but he still raced both days :D
