Well basically my life was going pretty good till Saturday...

I was out doing a favor for a friend and decided it was a beautiful morning to drive the bike... Well it was a beautiful morning... but unfortunately there was tar and gravel on the road where i was turning and at about 15mph i ate it hard and twisted my ankle really bad... Im ok... but my bike isnt looking to good...

Completely snapped off the right brake rearset on the bike and my tail is smashed pretty good as well as the right middle fairing is scratched to all hell...

Basically im pissed as all hell because literally right after this happend I get home and a call comes in from my CC company saying that they havnt been recieving my payments and that i owe them late charges and my intrest has gone up to 21%!!!!

Basically im pissed, injured, embarassed, and just not happy. Im hoping that I can just work as much as possible so that i can pay for my damage to the bike. and get back ahead on my payments

OUCH!... Sorry to hear about the streak of bad luck... Hopefully when it comes to fixing it's not as bad as it looks :fingers crossed

yea... Realistically I can get away with just fixing the tank bolts and the right rearset on it and it will be drivable but... The fairings are F'd up and the tail is pretty bad too...

Im going to try to back fill the tail with fiberglass...

Im crossing my fingers that it bonds..
