Hey guys. Finally feeling a bit better, so it’s rebuild time!

The box of carbon look stuff is still sitting in the garage partially unpacked. Here is the carbon fiber look front cowl from the same order I placed last month:

This is made from the same stuff as the tail section.

Stay tuned!

The rear rim lip got scraped from being on its side:

The subframe was bent and you can see a broken footpeg:

Well, it happened. It’s not a matter of will you crash, but when you will crash, right? So here is the short version:

I was riding on Highway 280, and slowed for bumper to bumper traffic in the left most lane, when some idiot in a beat up old car cuts right in front of me. I grab a fistful of front brake and, the Gsxr bucks me to the ground, then lands on my leg!

Thanks to the anonymous two riders who formed a protective “V” with their bikes, around me to divert traffic while the ambulance arrived. I’m on heavy painkillers but broke nothing. Here are some pictures of my gear:

My KBC VR-1 Helmet that saved my face:

My Dainese Imatra Jacket:

My new Kenneth Coles:

Argh! Good thing I haven’t started putting the new tail fairing on yet!
