Sorry to hear about this. The bike can be fixed, the important thing is your OK.

right,
was going along at about 50-60 in a 60 zone, no other traffic around
out from the side of the road runs some sort of animal
i brake and the front end tucks
i skid about 20 metres up the road bike about 30 metres
bike is fixable with a new bar end and left foot peg and gear lever
new crash bung and new top fairing
i think that is all it needs
photos to follow

all that and it still looks tidier than squirell hunters

Bad luck, at least your ok and this is a great oportunity to tart up your ride.

Do it a couple more times and you can have a bike like mine

That's 'I crashed', by the way.

Bad luck. I'd get it checked over with that amount of damage tho. Sounds like a near write off.
