bad luck ed, thought you'd got away with it until i saw the fairing panel

Hard luck - a couple of days earlier it would been fine! At least you're fine and it's only cosmetic damage to the bike.

Gutted, could have been worse at 30mph with busy traffic. I hear 4x4 are quite heavy you see and go over people quite well lol.

Hope it gets fixed ok.

If it was me I would be tempted just to fix it myself over time and just rise it around a bit scuffed but I know you like it clean and shiny so insurance may be the way forwards.

Had another look today, it's not that bad. Plus the insurance seems to be a no go cos of the XS. Panel isn't split, just scuffed, so I'm investigating a repair. Tail piece needs replacing though, hoping the ebay one comes good

Just saw this. Sorry to hear of your off, Ed. Glad you are not hurt
and that the bike is not too bad.

Just seen this. Glad you're okay Ed.

Enormous bummer about the bootiful Trumpet - but at least you now have a set of trackday panels - excellent.

There's a fella near me, PSG, who does repairs.
