Sorry to hear that, that really sucks. I was lucky enough the 2nd day after I put my frame sliders on I dropped my bike. I was happy that I decided to put them on.

Don't throw your helmet in a fit of rage. I don't know why people do that. The helmet usually costs more than a new mirror and a repainted fairing.

It sucks to drop your bike, I did mine the first time out this season. Not as imbarrasing though, I was at a friends house hanging out, and when i went to leave it was lying on the ground.

Pick it up, fix it up, and go. I have put at least 1500 miles on it since that day though.
