oh darn

i dropped mines while going from nyc to gilgo state park. passed the MSF basic about two years back and finally bought a 2010 250r about two months ago. this was my first time going on a long ride and on the highway. the wind was blowing really hard and i was struggling to keep up with my cousin and his friend on ocean parkway near the park. going at about 80 mph i finally caught up and signaled that i needed to take a break. we all pulled over and my legs were kind of shaky. once i put my leg on the floor, i just did not have the power to keep my 250r up. it doesn't help that i can not flat foot it either . it downed and i could not pick it up. my cousin and his friend got it up for me and there was minimal damage. the gear level bent inwards a bit, some scratches on the left side and aft fairings, a lot of scratches at the bar ends, and some on the clutch lever. my sliders was still stuck in transport and i thought i could get away with it, sigh.

please excuse my bad grammar.
