Hope your back up on two wheels quickly....

Minding your own buisness and you get blindsided. That sucks. Speedy recovery to you.  Give your body time to heal.

Get well soon eliminator. I know a bit about lower back pain. Minimum 3 weeks for muscle damage to settle usually. (surrounding muscles will tighten up to compensate, then they become part of tha problem) - could be  a subjective 6 weeks. Get plenty of regular fish oil inta ya (not tha capsul type) before you take on any physio - just when ya think it`s never going away, it comes so good it`s sorta pleasurable - that`s when ya end up overdoing it.  - make sure ya give us regular progress reports.

Coulda been much worse - It could of been an FJ!   (BMW are just callateral damage and eventually end up in bits anyway.)

That really sucks. I know it's hard not to worry about the bike, but concentrate on yourself first.

FJ11.5, I like the way you think!

Glad it wasn't worse than it was. Hope you heal up quickly and get compensated for the bike.

Wow! Its not like they could not see you, Fluro-Yellow/Reflective jacket and lights blazing. You are brighter than my red Power Ranger suit and still get hit. We really are invisible.... Looks like it is all fixable.
