So i crashed....
« on: 23 August 2012, 01:33:09 pm »
its gonna happen really, i used to cover 45000 a year on my bike, and now i still manage to cover upto 25000 annually.
 
diesel all over the road (2nd spill accident due to someone elses carelessness.)
 
the bike, damaged gen cover, smashed one of my led DRLs, scraped hell out of the end of my raask bars. and cracked the side of the fairing.
 
me, broken wrist.
 
was back on the bike two days later, and done 750 miles since the accident, it really doesnt bother me riding bikes with bits busted off, although i still need to cable tie the crached plastics back together properly....
 
gonna get rid of the knackered headlight fairing now, and go for a bandit headlight and vapour dash, no matter what screen i have, i seem to get buffeting, and found it better standing up to talk to my mate on bike intercoms!
 
and its getting a new wrap for its new look.. keep your eyes peeled...

watch out for problems mating the vapor dash to the fazer because it does away with the speedo sensor on the front wheel which is connected to the tps. Searching the old site brings some info about it but its scant and there's little definitive about it.
