Not serious but serious.

Hi guys,
Hope everyone is well.
Yes it had to happen.
During a failed U turn attempt I stalled my
Previously pristine 2019 busa.
The weight was over to the right and I couldn't hold her.
I put the bike down pretty gently but did scratch up the fairing,mirror exhaust.
What an idiot.
I would have rather the bike land on top of me with no damage to the bike.
I'm sure you guys know what I mean.
Now of course if I had crash protectors on it the damage would have been so much less.
Not sure if this is the place to ask but do any of you have them on?
If so what brand?
I have eyed off the Yoshi ones but they finish fitment at 2013.
These you have to put a hole in the fairing.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Shane.

I have R&G racing non-cut sliders on my Gen2. They are not cheap, but i did not want to cut any holes into my panels.
Was also able to fit some DRL to them aswell.

Dont know how well they would work as speed, But i do know at speeds of 40mph or less, they do work as i came off my old 750 SRAD and had no damage to any of the panels.
I have marked the photo in RED to show you the only marks to the bike after it slid 15m.

Cheers Martin.
Yes you have given another vote to R and G.
Wow they sure saved the bike.

Mate my bike is insured so it will be all fixed but just putting it down like I did is easily well over a grand to fix.
Versus the cost of sliders?
So wish I had them on.
Cheers again.
Ps.R and G is a British brand I think?
