Now I'm not a religious person but I would be kissing a spiritual butt if that was the extent of the damage to the bike and ME.

So I dropped my bike off at Harley to get an estimate on the damage for my insurance. If the the forks and frame are straight and it's only cosmetic damage I'll do the work my self.

Hey man, glad you're okay. Got hit myself a few weeks ago while splitting when a guy didn't stay in his lane while I was going past and pinched me between another car. As long as you're buying parts for the bike, check out the Bung King crashbars, saved my *** in this instance.

Bung King ($299) or this guy's sk8bar ($200)



Stay safe out there, all these 'techies' in the bay on their phones.

That's badass I never know they made anything like that. I want to protect my motor as much as possible in the event of an accident but don't like a full crash bar on this particular bike. I was tryin to think of something I could fabricate but I love the look of this. And as I'm typing this I just realized this probably won't work with forward controls

Yeah it mounts to the bike where the forward controls are mounted to. However I've seen a bike with a slightly higher crashbar so I know they exist.



Nice *** bike too (on instagram @tattooedscum)
