Well, if you had used your rear brakes...oh yea.

Well, I'm glad that you are okay. My buddy low sided this morning on his 1098. I posted a site, DDM, I think that had a discount and they sell mirrors cheap. Good luck.

Everything happened pretty fast.
They weren't being nice. They wanted to see you naked.

Glad to hear you're Ok Colleen

Take a look on ebay for your parts. Make sure you use the "advanced search" option and check the box for "Include Store inventory"

Take care
Jeff

I found front turn signals for a '92 FZR1000 but it's $38.95 plus free shipping for TWO. If it's close enough ......

The Miata is getting a new paint job WAY before my bike. I am really only concerned about getting the functional parts fixed.

Sorry to hear about the drop. I had one similar to it years ago on the 9R at the gap. But I knew it was a soft pull off, didnt expect mud. Mine being mud of coarse wasn't nearly as bad. Just like 3 scratches on mine. That gravel really does a number on plastic.

Put some buffing to her, some new starts, couple new parts and go on with life. Take the lesson to not let other people push you aside or rush you. Remember the lessons aren't ever over and the best thing you can do now is get back on the horse.

There were a bunch of body part listed too. I used 92 Yamaha FZR as my search words.

Glad to help

Jeff

The only cosmetic thing I would be interested in finding would be a new FZR decal. Not sure if they exist of if they would be super pricey but I would not mind replacing the scratched up one.

Glad you're okay. Make sure you didn't bend that handlebar, too.
