Crashed

Ok, so I was enjoying a great afternoon weather riding my ninja then suddely chance upon a cool spot on top of the hills, so I told myself, why not- nice spot for a photo ops to submit to Ninjette.com gallery so left indicator on, slow-look-press- roll.. did the turn smooth and then as I was braking to a stop.. boom! gravel! I was just using my front brakes in bit of a downhill road, front tire skidded and I hit the dirt.. I remember vividly that I was smilling on my way down as I could have made it easy with my road bike. but I guess bike and motorcycles are not alike.. so stupid. I was ATGATT hence was ok.. my Ninja had her fair share of scratches in the left fairing, craked rear plastic (whatever it is called) and a dislocated shifter.. I still rode it home.. not planning to do repairs, let the battle scars stay! Ride safe folks!
