I'm very glad you're OK.

As far as I've been able to tell so far, the axles did not break. Both wheels are still tight as well. Haven't been able to pull the fairings off yet to check the frame and triple clamps.
The info I can give so far is the rear wheel alignment was 1/8" longer on the right side, chain was a bit loose, and mismatched tires (new Pirelli MT75 rear, Dunflop K630 front. MT75 front had shipping issues).
Also had just completed a long right hand turn, which then turned into a shallow left hand turn where this took place. It was when the bike had become fully upright that it felt like going in the guardrail.
No odd vibrations or noises compared to the 1400 miles I had put on previously.
