    well, my right leg is swelled from the ankle to the hip.....hitting the crashbar can do stuff like that!!!! my ribs are better. i cant stand too long, so the work is gonna be slow on the bike....i pulled the fairing...it and the inner are in need of repair. my spot lights are not straight across anymore.....the forks are tweeked a bit i believe, but more research is needed to determine why? my riding hat didnt recieve any damage....no scrapes, scuffs or folds!!!!:)

    Chuck! Dude, glad to hear you and the Mrs. are ok! NOT a fun thing to go down...thankfully, so far....everytime I have gone down, it was solo.... Now you will need to check with your painter and see if he has a "road rash" deal for the paint!!! :roflmao: See if he can touch it up for you to look good as new!!! Good luck with the forks.
