Default Another Squid goes down

I got this from Kawi forums.
The only thing missing were flip flops.



Crash!!! Leaving work today and getting on the skyway bridge going like 85-90 in a turn a car desided to cut right in front of me forcing me to slam on my brakes in a pretty tight turn. I wasnt able to take the turn and drove right off the road into the grass and loss control, there was no time to stop and if there was it was in grass, so the bike came out from under me and slid away and did a flip i think or rolled over maybe once and I slid some other way.

Injuries to me were: Broken knee cap, rashed shoulder and arm, really bruised hip and left side. Over all not bad for wearing a sleeveless shirt and board shorts and running shoes. Helmet was untouched or even scratched.

As for the bike..... No insurance....

Both mirrors snapped off
Shifter snapped off and hanging
left stator cover is really rashed
The complete fairing around the headlights is broken in like 4 places. Split between the headlights and on the side.
Inside black piece of plastic next to the ram air is broken out.
Rear whatever under the ZX-6rr is really rashed bad but no breaks or dents.

Lower right fairing had a hole on it about 1/2 inch big like something tryed to break thru it.

Gas tank has some scratches.
Bike still starts right up and runs in first gear fine just cant shift it cause the snapped foot lever.

Cant really see any other damage untill tomorrow when its light out.

my main concern is the main front fairing since it is the most damaged out of everything. Is this super expensive? Also any places to get these parts cheap??

Pix to come tomorrow.
