Hopefully it's all just body work. You could just buy a new set of fairings and turn signals and call it a day, or if you're quite the painter, have at it.

Ebay

If it is the Diablo Black - I have been looking for a replacement set of used fairings in perfect condition for a long time. Best bet is repair for the easiest hit to the wallet - I would hate to get brand new ones and high-side (myself) again. Glad it wasn't worse.

First off, glad you are fine.

Fixing and painting yourself is the cheapest. However, if you want new OEM fairings, you're looking at hit. The main cowl and the rear one by the passenger seat will be about $550-600. Turn signals are about $20 a pop. Nothing else seems to have major damage...

If you feel like experimenting a bit...

Wanted: HOWTO make better fairings for under $100

I lowsided left, so my right front fairing is undamaged. As I don't really care what my bike looks like and as I will eventually customize the plastic parts anyway, I'd be willing to take your damaged front fairing as a trade-in.

I must say, for having gone down at 65 mph, your bike looks to be in pretty darn good shape!

Was thinking the same thing. Replace the turn signal, and go to town!

Body injuries aside, let this screw up be a wake up call for how important frame sliders can be! Would have probably prevented most of your damage.

Is it just me, or does the rear wheel look out of alignment?
