Hope that you're alright.
That'll be a new set of frame sliders then ....
Lowsided my baby tonight 
Slow speed - only going around 30-40 when i went down. Coming south off Queensborough, the first long right corner i was behind a Lexus (one the "cheap" ones too). No traffic ahead of him for a while. He starts braking harder and harder so in the spirit of things so do it. Next thing wham ... front wheel says i want to be in the left lane while the rest of the bike disagrees. Down we go ... Worst thing is, as i'm picking up the bike (which is in the right 1/3 of the lane), people are fucking driving round me like i wasn't there. Props to guy behind me who stopped to make sure everything was ok - even stayed there til i started the bike and rode off. Cheers bud.
Only damage was to the frame slider ( :rockon ), and a small scratch on the fairing. Think i need a new pair of waterproofs as well :tredmill

Don't hate me!
i think it was just because he was too excited to get to see me and give me my shirts
Coldish tires. Wet and greasy road. Suspension still in process of being set up. Too hard braking for the conditions. Shit happens.
(Really i was racing between cars ghost rider style to see KDawg (joking))
