blue hawk down
well riding with a buddy of mine today, just about an hour before bristol tennessee's biggest bike night at bristol dragway.
and well i ended up low sidding the bike, as i was comming over a hill and ended up off the road in the dirt heading towards a light pole at about 40+mph.
stupid me locked up all of my brakes, causeing the front wheel to go out from under me.
needless to say i ended up in the middle of the road with the bike following me. shoulder is pretty jacked but ill be alright, bike on the other hand...
deffintly bent the forks and put and big spot in the gas tank, fairings all held up pretty good got some rash but didnt break.
messed up the mid pipe for the left side can, but the can itself its fine.
then of coarse the small stuff like broke off the footpeg, shifter and clutch lever, and the mirror is in bad shape. ill post some pics in a little bit.
what really bums me is that i just got the bike and may have rode it about 5 good days now.
wish me luck on the rebuild
