So yea I dumped my bike over the weekend of the Dragon trip. Not hurt to get that out of the way. I came into a decreasing downhill radius turn kind of hot and ended up left of center in the ditch. I would have made the turn but still being new to riding I didn't give it any gas through the turn to sharpen my line. So I sorta coasted/leaned over enough that i was scraping into the ditch. I didn't slide across the road at all which was fortunate.
Bike is fine, road it all the way home that Sunday. Now that finals are over I had a chance to rip it apart. As you can see in the picture the post that holds that front fairing on is bent. Not sure how I'm going to straighten that yet. You can also see the hole in the back plate of the headlight where that screw would have been. I think the pictures make the damage look worse than it really is, mostly paint and plastic. For now i'll put the fairing back on but I'm pretty sure I'm going to change the color and go street fighter.
Steve has some more pictures he took that weekend too, along with a picture of my arm which is completely healed.
