Friday while out on an unfamiliar road, I ran out of road and found myself on gravel:bang:, slowed the bike for a turn to get out and it slid right from under me. Hurt the right ankle, but no scratches on me:up:. Well then theres the bike, not paint damage; however there is other damage.
foot controls snapped off.
Items I would need to get it back to factory specs.
Lever RH brake just (scratched the end)
Lever RH fwd control brake (sratched)
clevis fwd control
peg large RH (banded)
peg RH small (banded)
rear brake control wire switch (Pitbull associated)
Heat shield; reverse radius both front and back, (still have the original pipes so I could put them back on).
I hope someone can chime in and let me know who can get these to me express.
And the other issue is the 2 broken 3/8 screws in the frame, I suspect I will have to just drill and tap them out. Don't feel the need for someone else to fix this, insurance company says find some to fix it or take care of it and send them the bill. (state farm)

scratches can be sanded and polished out
pegs and such, maybe someone on here will have something for you
heat shields, check with vance & hines for replacments
brake control wire. your choice of oem vendors
broken bolts, drill and easy out

sorry to hear about you spill glad to hear you were ok and be happy there wasn't any paint damage. might want to go over every bolt and make sure they are still good and tight while you fix things up.

bummer - I very nearly did that on gravel last year but got lucky. Best of luck getting it fixed up - doesn't sound too bad

Glad to hear you made it out of that mess ok.

Fortunately the bike can be repaired... Stone and gravel is not our friend...
