Came out from under me at 25 mph or so. Upon review, my rear tire had oil on it from last nights oil change of my cage.

Lobster

Right side fairings toasted. Front cowl cracked. Gas tank hit the curb and my right side sets are broken in half.

Schooley

Damn man.. bad luck glad to hear your ok tho.

Damnnnnnn brooooo sorry to hear that! Is it just what I hear or do a lot of low sides seem to occur at low speeds?

Azballa7

Was gonna ask if you had frame sliders and if they helped at all to prevent any damage....but guess not.

rodas6r

Damn sorry to hear that bro
hope youre alright

Lobster

I'm fine, the egos a little bruised.

I guess you can say what everyone says holds true.

There are two types of riders : ones that have been down and ones that are going down.

I've been blessed to ride almost daily for 3 years and never even drop my bike.

I guess it could have been worse.

that blows, sorry to hear about that, I'm always worried about picking up oil from POS cars dripping oil on the street..

Glad to hear you are ok!

Azballa7

Did you have any injury? What protective gear were you wearing? How well did it hold up?

Only shit thing about this is you wish it was gonna be the ONLY time once it finally happened. Glad your in good shape tho.

Lobster

Yeah, I'm lucky.

Yep. Still lowered. Needless to say I wasn't hitting the turns hard since I can't really get the bike down.

Yep. Cursed bike lol.

It was actually oil in the garage from my oil chang the night before.

I'm the dumbass.

Helmet, Joe Rocket Jeans, Joe Rocket textile jacket, Alpinestars Boots.

Knees are still scraped up......that's it.

I always ride in gear because you never know when shit like this will happen.


I dunno, this might make me quit riding all together.

Do you think the fairings could be repainted despite heavy scratches? No cracks on the sides, only the cowl and obviously the tank.
