Well, had an awesome 4 days of riding at NJMP with TPM on the 23rd,24th,25th and 26th. I did crash on the 25th at the end of the day. Pretty high speed crash, since it was at the end of the straight(turn 1 Thunderbolt). FBW tail section, fairing, pod damaged bad, broken k bracket for right pod. Damaged engine covers.All cosmetic basically besides the K bracket. I'm bruised but ok.
The RT-3 was untouched. The bike went over the curbing backwards and on the right side, i saw the whole thing since we both spun around and I was pointed right at it. I thought it was going to be much worse.
Here's a before and after shot.
I will get some video up with the RT-3it sounds and performs GREAT






trackside repair


ready to roll with street plastics

Special thanks to DEAN ADAMS

Yikes. No sliders? Good to hear that Dean's creations hold up well. I figured they would.

I'm perpetually impressed with how well these bikes crash.

I'm not sure how it hit, but do you think the passenger pegs would have helped prevent the rear plastic damage? When I lowsided on the track, my passenger peg did a perfect job of keeping the rear off the ground.

So I guess you need new stickers now..... Should I just send an entire sheet of them?

Glad everything held up as well as it did and that you're not hurt any. Next time, wheelie through it.
