Glad your fine, was it the stock 08 tire? Did you figure out what caused the blow out?

It sounds like you are going to need some reconstructive surgery on you knee and some skin grafts. Best of wishes on a speedy recovery.

Crashing sucks man! Growing new skin to cover the raw meat is a long and painful process. Ugly too! Keep your chin up, you'll be as good as new and much wiser soon.

Please, in the future, check your tires for both normal and abnormal wear BEFORE every ride. I cannot believe getting that many miles out of a stock Bridgestone BT-015 that are notorious for low mileage anyway. My 07 gixxer is more than 100 pounds lighter than the busa and I only got 6050 miles out of the front BT-015. Your tire was well beyond the wear limit which caused the blowout!!
