Dropped the bike last night.
 
A little after new years i decided to go out to a nice little parking lot and rip my first burnout of the years. On my way home i was cornering a neighborhood road a little too wide and i lost my balance and ended up bouncing off the curb and dropping the bike on it.
No major damage. Scratched frame and fairing. snapped my front break lever. Tiny scrape on my knee.

The oddest thing is now that i look at it i am like " How did i do that?"

Endless, i've also seen where you can fix the scratches in the frame. idk how bad/deep yours is but it IS possible to repair it, somewhat.

glad you're aight, chief. ****ty way to bring in the new year. how was the burnout though?!

I did have a sip of yager earlier but not enough to do anything serious. Just a taste at around 11:55. Dropped the bike at around 12:20.
I really dont think it was that. Maybe if i had a little more i would have something to blame it on besides my lack of skill. [&:]

Damn. Glad youre ok bro. I know you said you only had asip of Alcohol, but it was only25 minutes had passed. Gotta be more careful man. I dont mean to preach, but driving a car after a sip is different from riding a motorcycle after a sip. Not saying either is right, just be careful with that. I could have been a lot worse.You said, How did you do that? Could have been that drink. Just a thoughtman.
