It's taken like forever to get motor rebuilt. But finally done and ready for the track. My little Short buss named Special ED is ready to do some damage. . A new life starting at 51k miles.

Road rash on hands cause gloves were tore off. I had on full race suit with full armor, boots, and helmet. Truthfully super blessed and lucky to come out with minor injuries. .considering got tossed off at over high triple digit speed. And bike didn't sustain to much damage.

Absolutely blessed! A High triple digit speed get-off is a rider's worse nightmare and when you've got your head down with the right wrist pinned to the stop, you need your guardian angels looking out for you.
Can't wait to see the rebirth of the 10R Blk, get well.

Ouch!
Sounds like very minor injuries considering... Gear is rad.
Bike's are easy, and fun, to fix... bodies, not so much.

Sorry for the poor news man but really glad you and the bike are repairable.
All the best to the two of you on the recoveries.
Oh, and you might want have a chat with that guardian angel of yours to be a little more pro active and prevent the accident rather than assisting after the fact...

Thanks guys,Was a bad decision on my part. But we live and learn. Lol.
well after doing a little research I took the plunge and purchased a fairing set off ebay. So far quality is pretty good, very close paint match. Only had to open up a couple of the mounting holes and order a fairing bolt kit. Still a free things to clean up but so far I'm happy. What she looks like now.

Thanks guys, I got lucky considering the speed and outcome of the wreck. Just had to replace rear subframe, under tray, got a deal on a set of slip-on pipes, and ebay plastics, rear sets I was able to bend back in place, will have to replace radiator at some point. Bent but works for now, tank has some scuffs that I need to fix and repaint. But I'm happy with her so far. Went on a 50 mile test drive today and everything works and feels fine. I'll update when I get her finished
