Driveway Crash. Any stock Shift levers?
So I just got back from a couple of days of fun but stressful riding around So Ca streets and highways. I did about 500 miles. I was driving up my driveway (which is about 1/4 mile with a blind turn) a little tired and glad to be home when a golf cart came flying around the corner and I was forced to swerve into a rock wall on the left side of the driveway. My bike scraped up on the wall and then I dropped it. I was only going about 10 mph. I think I stabbed at the brakes a little which sure didn't help. The damage is not as bad as it could have been. The left fairing was scratched/ground down a little, the left mirror and light is gone, and the handle bar is bent. Glad it was the left side and not the right side because the 2-1 Termi would have not faired well.
The funny thing was that I was just about to install some sliders and then post some pics of the bike.
I was thinking about ditching the stock hand guards and mirrors. I think I am gonna try and put some LED signals in the vents on the fairing, get lane splitter mirrors and get a new handlebar. I know some guys have done the LED signals in the fairing thing, any advice on which work best and where to buy. I would like to get a handle bar that is a little narrower and a little higher. I was thinking about cutting down a pro-taper. I want a bar that is more conducive to splitting lanes.I have the Scotts dampener which gave me a little more height but I still want a little more.
Does anyone have a stock shifter they are willing to part with?
Advice and condolences are appreciated. Sorry for the long post.
