Here is my baby....all brusied and broken, (cry) :-(.....
Anyone ever had a wreck and hurt real bad.....and all you can think about is how bad the bike is hurt?????

Everything else seems ok.....swing arm is ok.....

The only thing I am not sure about is the steering column...if its twisted or messed up.........don't really know.....anyone have any experience on this....or know what to look for????












This one hurts......thats a brand new wasson led turn signal less than a week old....about $75

I would suggest disassembling the fairings, and then follow the frame all the way around. Many people will tell you that if your steering stop is wrecked, that the bike is totaled. Just from what I know.

Glad you are okay, keep you chin up and best to both of your recoveries.

Default Fairings?

What is everyone's opinion on some of the aftermarket fairing kits that are out there?
