That sucks, hopefully you can find a paint set that matches. I always worry about gravel, I wrecked, back in high school, by hitting gravel in a corner.

I feel your pain
I went down on Memorial day but for a different reason. I talked about it in off topic by mistake

The bike came out better than yours but the arm hurt like hell. My shoulder hurt for about 4 or 5 days too but I am on the mend now

Hope you get better soon

Glad it's no worse. Patch up the bike and ride it. Little ointment on the road rash and a cover bandage will keep it from drying to the sheets tonight.

Well, glad you survived to talk about it. Looking at the pic of your injuries it seems to me that you have plenty of pain relief in those two bottles!

I was a senior in HS too when I came around a corner, hit gravel & went down on a buddys Honda 350-4. Rode home afterwards too & still think about it regularly on corners. You never know what's waiting for you. Glad to hear your ok.

I did the same years ago on a GPZ 750 at night. Gets you pissed off. At least your OK. I dented my tank when it happened to me. That really hurt.

Glad your okay but can't relate about gravel. Seen lots of gravel. Only time I have ever gone down was over forty years ago. I learned that running into a dog doesn't mean the dog will lose.
