Yep, hit by a Harley doing around 160 kph the cops think!
Looks like he laid the bike down though because the damage is right across the whole front door as well as rubber left on the front wheel. It hit the wheel that hard that it bent the knuckle/spindle causing the wheel to lean in 3* at the top. Jeep wanted over $1400 for a new one! Picked one up in the US for $60 second-hand guaranteed to be straight. Checked the photos of the donor and saw it was not damaged on that side so went with that.
