Hey Damon - long time no see! Yeah, I'll get pics on the weekend, but the damage is pretty small.

So, all the people saying to take it to the track now that it isn't perfect -> no way! There's bugger-all damage and it's going to be perfect again soon enough. I'm close to having my trackie finished anyway, so I'm not risking it.

Mick, good point - I can still one-up him! And you can nickname my non-existent kids anything you want!

Phil, shhhhh - don't remind the lad about brownie points, ya bastard!

Gail - thanks. At the time I was pre-occupied. Not thinking straight and obsessively checking my exhaust wasn't damaged! But now I am pretty pissed about that person's actions / words. And I'm kissing the Oggys. I can't rave about them more - I was a bit ambivalent about them before, but they've made the difference between getting new bar-ends, brake lever and a touch-up to one fairing and what would probably have been replacing three fairings, an indicator, possible bar straightening, mirror, lever, bar end and it might well have killed the engine casing, or at least rashed it up, etc. They made a huge difference. Three cheers for Oggs!

Cath, glad to hear you're ok..

Still don't get how it's your fault? But the important thing is that you've come out of it ok
