Total it, buy a new one, buy back that one, and make it a track bike. Glad to see you are ok.

glad to see you are alright. The other forum I browse frequently (bayarearidersforum) has had way too many RIP threads this year. As painful as these pictures look it seems like the few crashes reported here result in minimal injury to the rider.

Feel ya pain as it happened to me two days ago.

I guess you can't part out a bike that's totaled?

Is your ram air tube that directs air (through triangle in front) to airbox still available?

Mine is cracked. If yours is in good condition, I will trade and throw a little cash in on the deal!?

i hear within the next week i should imagine the severity of the damage everything infront of the forks was wrecked the clock bracket which is aluminium was smashed to bits.the bike has been taken away to see if its repairable. i was fine nothing broken just muscular damage where i went over the car onto the tarmac..

Thats officially the first insurance company I've ever seen that gives you a donor bike to ride. interesting.

Good luck, hopefully you get it back, as it doesn't look too bad.
