One year and one week ago today I waisted my beautiful silver/blue 05, still have absoloutly no memory whatsoever of what happened or what the cause may have been. Really hard to let go of something if you cant evaluate what actually happened. No long term life threatening injuries sustained but my hip, pelvis, lower back, shoulder blades & lungs aparently took some pretty severe impacts, I think I'm gonna feel the effects of those impacts for the rest of my life.
On a more positive note I believe it was nine days after the wreck I found my self driving to Oregon to pick up my replacement Busa, another identical silver/blue 05 with only 2K miles on the her. Took a few months to get back in the saddle but I've done a couple thousand miles this year. At first there was quite a bit of fear, especially on mountain roads. I'm remaining somewhat cautious but slowly regaining my confidence. Rode about 250 miles today and on a couple roads everything was feeling really good, was getting just a bit aggressive and to be perfectly honest, it felt awesome.
