Ah sorry to hear that, I am in your shoes at the moment as well. Slowly fixing her up though...Story?She is, poor girl...
Story? Well, as you can see I didn't keep her on the track. Sure wasn't her fault. I dropped into a left hand hairpin called "the bowl" up at NHMS a little hot and during braking bottomed out my forks. Front end got messy and I had to widen my line up and off the track. I wish there was a little more run off, maybe I could have kept her up, but I pitched her down and we both ended up in the tires.Ah sorry to hear that, I am in your shoes at the moment as well.

Titanium ones are faster.Maybe I could request metric screws? From Italy?

She's not too bad, some aluminum bits need to be replaced on the left side, clutch lever, shift lever and some scuffs here and there. She'll be ready to get back out there before me. I'm going to need some stainless hardware though to patch up my collarbone. Maybe I could request metric screws? From Italy?
ouchie!If titanium is faster, than what about carbon fiber? Then I could avoid those awkward rubber glove searches at the airport. Maybe I could replace the whole collarbone with a carbonfiber clutch lever? Its just about the right shape. Maybe I should photo shop one in so I could propose it to my Orthopedic surgeon today?
Dang man, sorry to hear you suffered some injury. Look at the bright side...plenty of time to fix up your stallion while recuperating!Story? Well, as you can see I didn't keep her on the track.
