yea those A* SP gloves are friggin great in a wreck. didnt even scuff my leather up when i went down in june.

i'm assuming you got the truck drivers ins information, as it doesnt seem like the accident was your fault?

Seems to me the ax maybe his fault. Possibly driving too fast for conditions. I dont know what the deal is with blocking both lanes.

Again, Glad you're ok! Ditch the helmet and get a new one, once it's got a ding in it like that it's usually no good anymore.

Did you have frame sliders on? Is it possible that they coulda reduced some of the damage, if you don't have them on already?

No frame sliders. Not sure they would have saved much since there is no damage to the frame, swing arm, or gas tank. The headlight assembly is fully in tact.

Full set of plastics, rear sets, brake lever, passenger pegs, front rim, right side engine cover, the entire exhaust, front brake lever, rear brake lever, right side bar end are all that is messed up. Sliders might have helped the engine cover but that's about it.

Thats what I was thinking because if he says he came over a blind hill and didnt see them until it was too late theyd probably just tell him that he was going too fast.

Again, glad you're okay. I'm wondering if you're going to have any problems with insurance since you had just increased it that morning. I hope your agent processed it right away and there is a time stamp. Otherwise, you may have the additional problem of your insurance company crying foul/fraud attempt. I was an agent for a brief time and you'd be surprised of the stories of fraud that occured. I just hope your insurance company doesn't give you any problems.
