Ow Sorry to hear that. Good luck with parts. Frame sliders are the key. Hindsight and all. If you need any help with fixing bodywork or graphics let me know. I can help.

Hey man I know the feeling about bikes and dropping them... especially at the beginning of the year. all i have to say is check EBAY! i got damn near all the parts on there for a total of appx 2000+ off factory price. sweet deal... hey man good luck.. if you need a fender i got one i'm gettin rid of, but i recommend the intergrated tail light... peace out

Thanks for sharing the story, it reminds us all to look out. For plastic... eBay. Buy what ever color and have it painted. You can replace the decal with one from all out graphics.

yo mang...sucks...poor new RR...but stop blaming your tires...it's not the tires fault.
slap yourself 10 times on each cheek, so that's 40 times total (both above and below belt line cheeks) for not letting the tires warm up first.

well tahoe it was cold tires and the first turn i made i slipped out, im not just blaming tires it was my fault as well for leaning too much. Its a costly error. Well if any 05 600rr tribal people could help i need a new left mid fairing that would be nice
