The most important thing is that you are ok.
Keep an eye out on the for sale section, often members have random parts for sale. Maybe eBay? Also gives you a good opportunity to try out some aftermarket items. |

I think somebody is some stuff for the ninja right now, go check out the marketplace don't know if they are still selling it though... you know when i first got my bike I almost dropped it in my driveway (Mines is like a 25 degree grade so its steep coming off the street). I was pushing it up the driveway on the side of it and once I got to the point where the steepness changed it started tipping away from me. I had never ridden a bike yet (MSF was the next day for me), so I guess I was like how the f do I get this up this driveway. That was a lesson learned for me as I don't walk my bike on the side anymore
