IMHO I don't feel that it really matters if speed was the factor or not. there was wet paint on the road, it was not marked. I would be willing to put money on it that the paint on the tire didn't help with the traction any.
another thing is that one of OUR brothers (he owns a busa, and he rides. puts him in the elite club) went down. he has gotten enough $#&! in the injuries to himself, bike, and pride already. Give a guy a break, pat him on the head, and tell him you fell his pain, and go on. he chose to share his experience with others. I would bet from now on he is going to be more careful about crossing paint, as well as all the people that are reading this. so I feel that he has saved at least one more accident, and possibly a life.

Glad you are OK man Gear FTMFW 
I would be checking into who painted the roads, go get the street name and contact the city. I am sure if they didn't have sign's up your insurance company would love to know

heal up bud!
Glad you still here.... they are not required to put signs here in FL, just in case you come down here assume there are all wet here.. and the people that are doing it could careless about what they do
... or
......it's just they are not the sharpest tacks in the box
Sorry about your getoff.
Always happy to hear rider is ok as we dont need any more 'fallen' ones.

Definitely sounds like someone is liable.
That pic of your tire with paint on is worth more than a 1000 words.
It is good evidence wet paint existed.
May be diff to prove that was the cause but still good you have it on film.

The same kind of thing happened to my Wife's vehicle a coulpe years back. She took pictures and then reported it to insurance. They told her to contact the responsible street crews and talk to them. A week later our vehicle was checked out by insurance and they totaled it. City had to pay for it. I would go get yourself looked at also. Glad your ok.
pretty sure by law they arent required to mark the road (wet paint) BUT THE FUNNY THING IS..I HAVE NEVER SEEN THEM PAINT A LINE ACROSS AN INTERSECTION, round here they stop painting for the intersection then start again on the other side..i would check into it anyway, I know few years ago a friend got 3k in front end damage to his car after falling into a huge pot hole...he had to prove they where aware of the hole for more then 48 hours and neglected to fix it in order to get paid
