i was following some friends to someones house and i wasnt familiar with the area and i was just trying to keep up with my friends. they decided to take some back roads with some twisties to show off to the newb (me) so we get to some soft 90 degree turns, nothing serious but one of them happened to be a u-turn and i didnt lean enough so i tried to straighten out so i could slow down but i knew i was going into the ditch :bbb: and i hit the curb with the front tire and flipped over the wind shield. all i remember was hitting the ground hard a few yards from the bike. there was one guy behind me who said my head was sliding across the ground while my body was still in the air before i touchdown. if not for my helmet it would have been a lot worse. thank god i was okay. i got away with just a few bruises and scrapes. the bike came out of it with some cracks and scratches on the lower left fairing that i still havent fixed (im poe!) i'll try to post some pics up tomorrow.
