the one and only time i fucked my shit up was when i had the bike for about a week. i had just put my 40th mile on it, and i was turning off the street into blu808's driveway. i was going way too slow to have the clutch out, and it started hopping when i hit the dip in the bottom. i gave it some gas but it was too much. i bumped into the back of his roommate's step dad's dodge ram and bashed the tail light out.

my right headlight shattered, along with the whole right side of my fairing. then the bike tipped over onto its left side and bent the bar end screw, broke the clutch lever, and broke the shifter lever. somewhere in there my radiator got bent too.

my headlight somehow still had the place where the bulb mounted, so all the lights worked. and the radiator still held water, so i just ziptied the fairing back together, got a new clutch lever, and put a bolt through the end of the shifter and it was all gravy again.
