i hit a curb over 50. met a friend to ride for a bit after work. we took the normal route, turns out they changed a road since we've been down it. instead of going straight after a hill, it 90's right with no time to slow down. granted i was going about 85-90 in a 40 when i topped the hill. not sure how much i slowed down before hitting the curb but i slid mostly so prolly not much. it threw me about 40 yards

yeah i got real lucky, my lid doesn't have a mark on it, and since it was recent construction the dirt i landed on wasen't packed down. i had my jacket on thankfully, i landed on my back. my back and knee hurt like a bitch but i got some pills now.

anyway bikes trashed so i'll prolly be selling the motor and a few of the other parts that survived if anyones interested. 96 f3 ama race motor. rims are trashed front end trashed. and the master cylinder, subframe and fairing stay trashed. have full yoshi system ( can a little beat up now ) woodcraft rearsets, daytona steering damper, factory pro race jet kit in carbs, dyna 2000 ignition, few other things.

is it safe to assume the radiator is trashed?

no it's cool, didn't leak at all, the bike came down on the left subframe and right side of the front fairing stay.

i'll know this weekend, after i check to see if my forks are staight, if i'm going to part it out or not, only bad thing about this motor is it won't run without full exhaust k&n filter ( or UNI filter ) and proper jet kit. but it runs like a scalded dog if you have it set up right.
