Sorry about the bike, but from the damage it looks like it could have been much worse for you! Heal up quick....

PM Sent. I rode without the front fender for the 3.5 hr. trip back home, I'll scope out the bike closer tomorrow... Getting tired, been a biatch of a day today
Thanks for all the comments guys, I'll be back online tomorrow sometime... Keep it real out there!
Goodnight All.
Sorry to see you hit the deck. Looks like your pride was the only thing seriously enjured? Looks like your bike got skinned up on both sides? How did that happen, did it flip over at some point?
Dang, if your Icon mesh jacket got torn up like that in a 25 mph get off, imagine what you'd look like if it was an 80 mph crash?
My son had a 125 mph get off six weeks ago at the track wearing a Taichi Suit and didn't get a scratch. Broke his colar bone but didn't scratch him
I'm betting money your next jacket won't be a mesh one? Just a hunch? I'm also betting you'll get some leather pants with knee protection soon? Is road rash painful?
Glad you are okay dude! I do find most guys dress much better after the first crash. I'm one of those examples

Glad to hear your ok.... Damn cagers!!!! Heal up fast. atleast looks like alot of the damage is light and not alot of cracks. I have been collecting parts for mine and there is a whole red and black 06 plastics on ebay right now. Did not know if you wanted to go from black and silver.
The right side only has damage from the construction beacon (kinda like an orange 55 gal drum) hitting my right front fender and right side and the small scratch on the right rear... yeah, no plastics were spared sadly enough...
I have full leathers, temp was around 90, so I wore my mesh, contiplated on wearing my mesh pants, I wouldn't have had a scratch on me if I did... BUT, I am SOOOOOO lucky that it was only a 25 mph get-off, cause you are right, the mesh would not have held up to much more grinding...
My leathers are full and not perforated, way too hot for a 5 hr cruise in 90+ temps... I think I will add a perforated leather top and bottom with knee sliders to my gear collection though
The knee is not so bad, it really just took a few layers of skin off, kinda sore but not brutal. I heal like a dog does, so it will be all gone in a week.

Thanks cap, its just the plastics and a stat cover, not as bad as it could have been... Only slight rug burn on my knee, I'm kinda used to that thanks to my girlfriend
I want to find the black & silver plastics, or I may just go for having a custom airbrush design done, so I'll take a look at what e-bay has, thanks bro!
