Default Laid her down tonight, whoot! lol

Luckily I was only doing 10-15mph, hit a patch of gravel turning into the 7-11 off 4th st in St Pete and the bike went down. Very minor damage.. broke the frame slider in 3 pieces, some scratches on the right side farings/exhaust piping, and clutch case cover.. nothing bent or broken.. had my gear on, minor rash on my right shin/knee, right hand hurt a little but nothing major.. dam a* gloves didn't hold up worth a shit.. lol, i took pictures i'll throw them up tomorrow after the n run.

-Mike

Thanks Joe, not sure on the brand, they were on the bike when I purchased it. Don't see any brand markings on the left side slider so I'm guessing they were the cheap ones you get off eBay. I'll replace them with a quality brand in the near future.
