Nothing too major, you need to do stuff like that to get to know it. Wink

The leathers just look battle scared now, that's what they are supposed to look like. Thumbs Up

Unlucky dude, easily done Sad

On the bright side the damage is very minimal and the lesson learned very valuable Thumbs Up At least you're not hurt.

Nothing that can't be sorted easily. Now your leathers aren't scuffed, they're battle-scarred Wink Thumbs Up

It was savagely cold today as well, yesterday and today being the coldest days by quite a bit for a while.

What crash bungs were they? Having the bung snap isn't neccessarily a bad thing - some are designed to snap rather than do some more permanent damage.

Anyway see my sig for the spill counter Neutral

Edit: Looks like I was beaten to the leathers comment Smile

Unlucky mate, were you wearing your protective gear?

I did suggest you get some bungs that are lower down to protect the engine casings.

Pop over some time I'll give you a hand to make her look nice again (I've got quite a few spares for an R6)

Sorry to hear about the off Yoko, could've been a lot worse, at least you're ok and damage is only cosmetic really.

Have to disgaree on this point slightly, you crashed because you didn't expect the car to be there and panic braked?

Now if some car came round the corner and crashed because he didn't expect me to be there I'd either laugh or mutter dick head and ride on, I didn't cause the accident and I wasn't involved either, not my problem.

So you'd leave someone, potentially injured, in the middle of the road? Eh?

Hi

Ouch. Not much damage. Might be worth choosing better crash bungs though.

All the best

If it was a biker no, probably only because I am a biker though, also he said 2 students came over, so, I still could be quite tempted to say fuck it and ride on, more likely so if I needed to be back at my desk.

Having seen it happen, it's common decency to check the person is ok, whether you were involved or not.

When I came off the NSR because I went wide into incoming traffic, the car driver stopped to check I was ok, even though it had nothing to do with them apart from being there.

Seeing someone run wide into oncoming traffic is slightly different to seeing someone go down at 10mph.

Unlucky mate, at least it looks relatively easily put right.

Would suggest and recommend R&G crash bungs when you replace yours.

I've used them in anger and was well pleased with the lack of damage. The bike went down at about 45mph and slid 150 yards, all it got was a couple of minor scuffs and a scraped lever. The R&G was well ground down but still straight and cam out easily with a socket wrench.

Like others have said, just count your blessings that you broke nothing.

Paul.

Unlucky mate.

R6 crash bungs come in upper and lowers, i'd invest in both. Wink

Bad luck M8.

I agree with andy13_uk tho.
You can get those ' Anal-dised' pegs off now Laughing Karma

I was 'thrown-off' my iron horse two months ago.
(I Never posted details as I fell off twice last year and didn't wish to bore yous with it)
My pryde and Joy was saved from massive damage by R&G bungs. Mashed the plastic and bent the mounting bolt but saved bars, brake lever and mirror.
I had the can protector bit too but never fitted it as it looks shyte. But the front of the can copped it. Crying or Very sad
Wet road and white road marking.

Get well soon.

Very unlucky Yoko.


Your bike could have been much more damaged - as could you. As Joe said, consider it a valuable lesson, you might react differently next time Thumbs Up


I hope you're not feeling too stiff today.
