Fairings only had primer on them anyway so not a big issue, I'll fix the cracks up and respray em. Already fixed the engine cover with some tech-steel epoxy for now, while I wait for the new one from ebay. New windscreen on the way too, since it cracked good... only $20 shipped for that though!
Thanks man. Damage was actually pretty minor, cracked the left side engine case but was an easy enough fix. Plastics took a hit but nothing shattered just a couple cracks and scrapes.
lol sorry to disappoint, crash is at the end of this one:

We went all along Ridge Rd to about Beamsville and back - lots of sand - I found out first hand... low-sided my bike, but was wearing my leathers and had no injuries, just the embarrassment of dumping the bike on my first ride with the guys.
If you ever ride into Port Dover it's a steel grate bridge.... same as the lift going to and from Burlington. Like they already said, just stay loose on the handlebars and let the bike do the work! I've still got my M1 too and there's nothing to them as long as you remember to stay loose on...
Welcome to the forums! I'm just in Stoney Creek - just got my bike last year, an old 86 FZ600 that I semi-restored over winter. I'm always down for a ride!
That's crazy talk. I guess I'm overly excited to be riding since it's going to be my first full season. :D
I'll be headed out for a bit before lunch today, and Saturday is looking like a great day for a ride!
