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.

Yeah but I'll be ok and the bike will be fixed. It does suck but it happens.

It's funny because there was a discussion a few weeks ago on this board about ABS. At the tome I said I wasn't sure about them, but now I'm convinced that if I had them, this wreck might have been prevented.
