if you want to see pictures of TJ's bike go to the FL board.
he's still in alot of pain. but his memory is coming back more & more. he can talk better now, but there's still no phone. his brother don't know when he'll be out of ICU. his ribs seem to be the worst right now & need surgery, but they feel he wouldn't live thru it. each rib is broke in more than one spot.
that's all I have now, I hope to go see him next weekend.
Big Thanks to Jeff K for picking up the bike & helping me. Plus Thanks to all that offered your help, what a great group.

Tell him the Valk did well....I have seen worse brought back to life. I know that raised my spirits after my accident. He has other things to concentrate on (HIM SELF ! ) but that bike is just scratched!

I was scared to see the bike, but amazed it wasn't so bad. then I thought to bad his body is what took the blunt of everything. I will let him know everyone is pulling for him. thanks for putting the pictures over here.

He could probably sell those Corbin side covers and finance a complete remodel.  |

I agree! I shudder ANY time I see a bike, that has been down, but that's not pretty at all - especially the windshield down like that - I KNOW what pushed it down... Get better, TJ! r |

Damn thing left a puddle of oil in my new garage. The oil filter had a hole in it.  But to be honest the bike isn't that bad. The tack and speedo are gone and the bars are snapped in half. The tank is toast. But the frame and forks look good. All the tins are damaged. |
