Well, Tina and I are still out on our Big Bend, Texas trip. Almost home.. crashing at a Holiday Inn for the night. I let the bike fall over today... :( Slight down hill slope in the mountains and I was off taking pictures... the wind pushed the bike enough.. i heard a noise and it was on it's side. No big deal I guess. I am riding with half a clutch lever, almost no shift lever and a rear peg (Buell peg mod snapped in half! $94 gone!!! :( ) . It scraped up the cover and fairing a bit on the left side.. guess I'll bee thinking bout that new paint job soon. Ill have pics of the trip tomorrow!

Yep! Trip is going great... I had some tire issues yesterday that almost put us at a stand still. We left two-up on her GSX750R for a few minutes... found a good citizen and got that taken care of. The road were great and only got rained on for a few minutes... we've really had a good time. I think my wife was way more bummed about the Busa failling over than me.... part of riding I guess... great excuse to get those Pazzo levers from Pashnit Ive been wanting!!

Good to hear yall had fun.I have the stock levers to keep you going till you get your pazzos. I wouldn't fret it too much. The only way to keep a bike looking perfect is not to ride it, a terrible price to pay.:beerchug:

Sorry to hear. Make sure you keep a close watch on the stator cover. It damages real easy. Glad you're getting some ride time in and relaxing.
