I know exactly how you're feeling. I did the same about 2 years ago. Low sided on cold morning, only been on the bike for 10mins.

As part of your physio you should post some pics up of the damage so you can get some good advice on how best to go ahead with it, plus you'd be suprised how much better you feel for doing it!

btw if it's just the original can that's knacked and not the pipe leading up to it do a search on here. There's a tutorial on cutting it as if you wanted to change it for another exhaust. That way you could get another stock exhaust and bolt it on. It will be cheaper that way, or you could spend a bit more and get something LOUDER!
