oh and as an extra- how much damage u think if u didnt have the crash bungs on??

Shes not down with me just yet otherwise that would be a good reason

Ill get some pics tonight but the main bung was chewed and the rear swingarm one has a bit of damage too, so the swingarm would of been marked. The main damage would be the fairing would of been scuffed/broken, mirror, indicator, screen all broken and then marks on engine casing and frame im guessing

21Quest, I was being careful but dont think I loaded the front too much, if anything I was going up hill slightly due to the camber, also by the way the bike stopped the back end was spun round so whatever was on it got both wheels imo

Sorry to hear this, glad you're OK

I've got a spare R&G swingarm protector/cotton reel if you want it

Though thanks for the offer mr toad, Ill have a look tonight and double check and see how bad the swingarm bobbin is in the light, if its chewed up bad ill take ya up on your offer

Out of interest I have got these super slider things http://www.bikesliders.com/ they offer a free replacement on the main puck thing so thats pretty good.

EEK, Glad your OK, bikes are fixable people arent.

Doesnt sound like to much damage though, thank goodness for crash bungs

Take it easy dude.

Why?

I ride all weathers, only fell foul of the wet roads once, but that was my fault!

****!

Glad you ok mate! grip was bad on the roads yesterday when it really poured it down, and than it snow while I was out!

Got home ok, but I have a few moments where I was worried what the bike might do.

Cheers

it ain't that, the main reason is over the years Ive ridden in the wet and i just have no confidence in myself the bike or the tyres and the one off Ive had was in the damp conditions. just prefere 4 wheels when its greasy.
