Well I hoped it would never happen but it did. I hit the pavement but for the sake of my pride I can say I didn't crash, I was crashed into. It happened about 2 weeks ago I wanted to wait until everything with insurance was straightened out. I got rear ended by another motorcycle when I was turning into a parking lot. Both bikes went down pretty hard I was almost stopped when I was hit but my bike still managed to slide about 20 feet over a storm drain and a curb into the parking lot and I managed to slide for awhile as well. Neither rider got hurt with the exception of some slight road rash. My gear did its job for the most part, reminds me why I always ride with all my gear. Unfortunately both bikes were totalled. The other bike had a cracked frame from the crash and the insurance company racked up so much cosmetic damage to mine that it was totalled as well (although from the pictures it doesnt look like it would be). It probably would have been totalled without the cosmetic damage because with the force of the impact I would have to imagine that there had to have been something structurally damaged. I have a picture of when i first got her, after all the work I did, and then after the crash
