Saturday I went on a ride with about 10 others, and was a little overzealous with the throttle. Coming out of a left hander I rolled it on a little too hard with cold tires, and ended up lowsiding
and highsiding. I lowsided until I reached dirt. Once I hit the dirt the bike popped up, and flung me into the air. I tumbled quite a way and my bike did some cart wheels. A rider behind me said I got some serious air, like 10 feet. I'm not sure about that, I couldn't tell if I was even 10 inches off the ground, I just knew I was airborne. By some miracle I was completely unharmed. No broken bones, no bumps, bruises or scrapes. Partly responsible for that is the good fortune of crashing into an area free from trees, large rocks, guardrails, cliffs etc. The other thing that helped was the full leathers, back protector and helmet. I'm no claims adjuster, but my guess is it's totaled. Here is some eye candy for ya;
Here is the exit of the corner. You can see my tire mark, I'm not sure if it's the front or rear. You can see the peg scrape, and later where the stator cover began to scrape. The bike came to a rest between the two midget trees just to the right of the red car. They're about 5 feet high. The picture doesn't do justice to how far away they really are. The distance through the dirt was further than the distance on the pavement.
The front tire was pushed up against the headers, and there was a rubber coating on them. Here it is turned away from the headers. The left for looks relatively strait, but the right one is bent badly. The handlebars are pointed in strait, and you can see how much the wheel is out of alignment.
Here is the side I went down on originally. You can see the front cowling, right fairing, and muffler in the background. The muffler was found in the trees a good 30 feet beyond the final resting spot of the bike. Miraculously the clutch lever and clip-ons are in one piece.
There were some fairly large rocks scattered about the area, and I think the tank met one head on.
The sub frame snapped and twisted. By the looks of the damage, the bikes seems to have flipped end over end, the front and rear both hitting the ground.
This is the "good side". This is a good shot of the right fork.
So I probably won't be on this forum much anymore. I have full coverage insurance, but am planning on getting a different kind of bike, most likely a Supermoto. After I graduate, I'll probably pick up another sport bike for the track only. These things just aren't meant for the street.
I've been there
