Did insurance cover any of the accident?

cant wait to see the finished product!! My first R1 was a rebuild(my buddy crashed and sold to me) and tbh it was an epic experience. I still love that bike to this day because I put in so much time on her.

Did you get your stretched swing arm ordered yet bahahahahaha

did you do a thorough inspection on your airbox? My airbox got cracked both bottom and lower when the gas tank took a hit.

looking forward to your rebuild. wished i would of seen that needed oem left control switch earlier, because I had that and ended up chopping it up for for switch mods on my son's quad lol.

Jokes aside,

Good to see that you survived the crash.
Good to see that the bike is fairly OK.
Good to see that you have got the motivation to turn it into something positive.
