Ouch, that plastic can sure add up, never any fun laying 'em down. I hope there wasn't any damage to your person.

I've got it rideable. Just in the nick of time as I got a flat today on the rear tire of my Katana. Just need to install the heat shield on the lower fairing and then put it on the bike. Thinking it's also a good time to replace the oil and filter while the lower fairing is off

Luckily it was a low speed crash. Making a left turn with a green light and the bike just slipped out from under me. I ended up scraping my knees, spraining my wrist and ripping my riding jacket. Of course most of the bodywork was toast.

That sucks that you went down. I always do a burnout on a fresh rear and take it easy the first 50 miles. Good thing you didn't get seriously hurt. I'm liking those mirrors you got on there too.

The mirrors look cool but you can't see a damn thing out of them. They are just too small

On any given weekend there is well over a couple of hundred bikes in an around the four corners (intersection of highway 84 and 35). A fun lace to ride but the police are thick as thieves sometimes
