R Dub what kind/ how much gear were you wearing?

This. You probably hit your head or just landed very hard jarring your brain inside of your skull. This happens to boxers a lot, they black out for like 1-3 seconds but remain standing.

I was wearing a HJC helmet, Castle jacket and gloves and just regular ole blue jeans. And I have to say thank goodness for every single piece and they all did there job and really well I thinl. I just bought a new OEM stator cover for $55 shipped. Upon further inspection I realized I also broke my gear shifter so I bought a new one of those $25 shipped. Any one know where I can to some OEM front turn signals?

I also have no idea how I scratched both sides of the rear cowl and broke both mirrors. I was thinking maybe it went down on the right side and bounced back over to the left but I don't know if its possible.

All my replacement parts finally came in so tomorrow I will fix it back up and hopefully be riding by tomorrow afternoon. My question is does anyone know how easy (or difficult) it is to replace the shifter?

Easy, it's just a couple of bolts.
