Gents,
About a week ago I purchased a top case off "Damaged Goods" here on the forum. Was waiting for shipment and got a call from his wife apologizing for him not being able to ship it right away. Last Thursday he was slammed into from behind while on his new FZ1. He had only been on it for 3 miles, was waiting to turn onto his street when a lady hit him going about 55 MPH. The previous Tuesday he totaled his Concours. He said he "had to lay it down or hit someone." He said he was fine because he was ATTGATT.
His name is Jody he is 37 years old,(Atlanta Georgia area) he fortunately had no head injuries but is pretty badly broken waist down. Broken fibula and tibia in one leg, femur in the other along with knee cap, shattered ball socket in the hip along with pelvis. He sent me some pictures of his wounds, I will spare you guys those. Apparently he has had 3 surgeries, and will not be able to stand up and walk for at least 6 weeks. He wanted to let everyone know to get the word out for everyones safety. I'm hoping to not start some crazy thread here pointing blame just letting you all know about a fellow member that could use your prayers.
I'm sure he wouldn't mind well wishes either.
