Welcome to the site....

Get a new wheel, tyre and indicator fitted mate and it will be road worthy.

Those type of sliders are mounted to the lower fairing bracket which is quite flimsy, more for looks than anything as the bracket bends too easily!

+1,

did you hit something? did the tyre randomly blow for no reason?

If it randomly blew, matt (alpinestarhero) said to report it to whoever made the tyre because they would probably want to know. The tyre manufacturer might want to investigate it or something.

Glad to hear you got out of that in one piece though!
