Looks like my conversion to the dark side is on hold for a bit. I dumped it this morning on my way to work... Rear tire hit oil in a banked cloverleaf, rear slid out and lowsided at 35 initially, then she caught and highsided when the bike was perpendicular to my direction of travel. Shop called and told me 12k in damage including frame and swingarm. I skinned my knees. Lol

DAAAANG! That suck dude! Sorry to hear the bike is messed up but glad to hear you walked away. End of the day the bike is replaceable, you, not do much.
Maybe this would be a good time to go ahead and cut the frame and stick a 30" wheel on the front of it! Good excuse to go full bore bagger now!

Best of luck getting back on the road.
Thanks man. I'M on the fence, if I get my bike back I want it perfect. So I'm kinda hoping the insurance totals it, becuase otherwise I will lose the entire season of riding with the bike in the shop. And there is no way I would put a 30 on it, that's too much dang wheel to clean!
Love the look of this bike. Gloss black and some small chrome accents. This Winter I'm going to accumulate the parts to do this to my Charcoal Gray SGS
Well then... Had a little accident last week and just got the word from my insurance. Looks like I am going to be starting over again. Working on a deal on a '15 Roadglide in Black, might be able to talk the dealer into moving some of my wrinkle black components over before insurance picks up the street glide. I'll post pics when I can!
