RE: ouch......down few hours ago......
i did the exact same thing on my old yamaha leaving work at night= cold tires, cold tires turning left except i high-sided and me and the bikeslid and hit the curb at about 45mph, i fractured my thumb "bennet's fracture" ,concussion. and compression fracture in my spine from hitting the curb head on. I was in a 1/4 cast and 2 pins the whole summer for my thumb so i didn't have to worry about fixing the bike up any time soon. Sucks so bad i only had the bikefor 3 months. It was totaled i ended up selling it for $1900 "as is" lol
I know your pain.

(for the dude upstair i feel your pain as I tell myself "you play, you pay") trying to laugh it off as you, but this is my 3rd fall (last time was about 10 years ago)so it took a damper on the pride thing...anyways gotta call-in work and let them know gonna be out for a few. lates guys!
