Updates will be arriving shortly, i'll have pics of the bike post crash (Rae, can you send me some of yours? you've got my e-mail) and up through the work i've done so far. So far its all good, i can salvage most of my fairings, the only ones i think i'll need are the nose piece, a small support piece, and the lower right piece. mechanically the bike is flawless. I found the spot where the coolant is leaking, and im not sure why its leaking there, its just some useless looking little nub. easy fix, and no structural damage to the reservoir. i may have to bend a mounting point for a fairing, but im not sure yet. A little plastic expoxy on a couple small cracks (like 1-5 mm) and these fairings should be ready to go. Thinking im going to re-paint everything white/black , grey/white , or grey black... haven't made up my mind, have to get ducks in a row first. i'll have an update around noon, i have a major case of poison ivy from our river experience... so its time to go take a shower and apply calamine lotions.
