Default Went Down Today

So i went down today.....Sux looks like i fucked up my right handlebar pretty bad it looks pushed down pretty bad i hope my forks arent not bent which they dont looks like it but am sure they are with my luck.. went to make a left turn didnt even give it to much gas and the rear swung out pretty damn hard and ended up high siding at about 30 my race rails did save alot of the bike only craked the rear tail and a little crack on the front fairing where the headlight is overall good shit.... taking her to the shop tomorrow to have her inspected was now just seeing if anyone had a new right bar mine is def twisted not even going to try and bend it back

only damage to my self was a i twisted my ankle pretty bad its pretty swollen and my elbow little bruised but the jacket and helmet did their job upset that i now have a diesel scratch on it thou

That's shitty. Heal quick. Maybe you can open up a grammar book and read about using periods in the meantime.

So...where do you live (temps, road conditions) and what lead up to the crash, (short ride with cold roads/tires, long ride and tired/not paying attention)? Any idea WHY you dumped it? Gear? How much and how well did it do? Anything you would do differently?

Thanks
