Crashed it today going back to work from lunch. Lady crossed my lane trying to get to the right turn lane. Impact was at about 10mpg. 1 .5 in smudge on a fairing from her car, but the side that dropped got absolutely no fairing damage. Just scratches on exhaust heat shield, brake lever, side mirror, brake pedal, and bar end. Both front signals a broke but still functional. I can still ride. I was unhurt. She was ticketed for illegal lane change. Need to get estimates for repair so I know how much to tell her insurance to write the check for. It will most likely go to flush mounts, touch up paint, and to pay of the slip-on and solo cowl I just ordered. I figure for my first crash that it couldn't have gone any better. The officer was a bike rider he was pretty amazed there was no fairing damage and the stock signals didn't damage the fairings inside. Guess I was able to lay it down easily.
