Not too severe. My bike was/is in worse shape than me. I walked away with just some bruises. My bike could not be ridden home. It had a bent fork and triple tree, broken front fairings, headlight, gauge cluster, bent handle bar, blown fuse. I think I just got lucky that I escaped with hardly any injuries. It was at night and it happened so fast I don't really know what happened other than it was all my fault. Haha. I was riding too fast for my skills and the conditions I was in.

But I believe that helmet could have taken quite a bit more of a beating and I would still be here. I was also wearing a Bilt jacket from Cycle Gear and it held up nicely as well.
