So last Thursday, I was driving about 350 so miles to get my bike up to school. About half way up to Gainesville, I crashed.
I am not sure one the details, due to hitting my head pretty good. I had on full gear so I don't have a single scratch on me! The bike isn't bad. Cracked plastics and busted rear brake pedal. The rearset bracket broke too, but I picked that up off ebay for $30. So If you have an extra you would like to sell me ;D
All things considered, I came out rather lucky. I remember having been run off the road (can't for the life of me remember why) and having to brake really hard. I was braking in a turn so I had to stand it up and I was going about 30mph when I ran out of road and the second I hit the grass, I was down.
Everything turned out well in the end. Damage is mostly cosmetic ( so If you have a Blue 2001 front right fairing, Sell to me ;D
Just wanted to share my crash story as it seem to be a some what regular post topic.
