 Man that's nasty.
Won't be riding that one away...
Looks like a rear ender from a truck or something, no rear wheel damage so it's been hit quite high.
Lets hope it was just parked at the time, because no-one riding that bike would survive that sort of impact.

Yeah, not a pretty site at all. Makes ya stomach churn.
I think you may be right though with the front impact.
Looking at the other pics, there's no damage to the exhaust, tail light etc.
The front rim is dented and broken but I just expected the forks to be more twisted from a frontal.
I guess as shit as the forks are internally on the Hyper, they're strong as all hell.
How much impact would it take to make the bike bend like a f*cking banana though?

Damn, the foot pegs, shifter and brackets look good. Could one of you AUS guys pick those up for me?
Damn, looks like an utility pole fell on it or something.

I am not sure buffing alone will work, but if you hit it with a clay bar too, it would probably not look bad at all.
That thing looks like Greece's econmony and the Dow. 
Out!

AXE you could paint that up in five minutes mate and her looking sparkling 
That is probably one of the most wrecked bikes from every angle I have seen
