oops that ended up well
Well yesterday pissed me off, i've been riding everyday all day for a couple days now and all has been good...until yesterday.
i have a driveway that is one long curve and consists of rocks about quarter sized with very sharp edges. coming in slow, as in idling in 1st gear some thing happened and the front wheel started to just push rocks, happening so quickly i freaked a little and grabbed the front brake hard(my stupidity) bike dropped at about 3mph and i kinda stumbled off it never falling. now swearing i picked up my bike which used to have a nice paint job, but now has a f**ked right main fairing. 1 crack lots O gouges. nothing else got hurt on the bike though.
Today i will spend filling gouges with poly-flex and fixing the crack. Lucky me i cant get a matched paint, so i'm just repainting the whole thing.
I fixed the fairing with poly-flex and primed it.







This being one of the first major fixing/painting jobs i've ever done by myself i'm very pleased. now to finish the rest of the bike.
