Re:Dropped Bike 5 Years ago  
I've been riding for almost 40 yrs. Two months ago I was in line pulling out of a parking lot on a 113 bike run. The 102" coughed,stalled (it was cold) I didn't grab the clutch in time, she locked up and over I go. What an ego killer. Not much damage and the best part they were replaced with better aftermaket goodies.

There is an entire new OEM chrome RS turn signal bracket on EBAY right now for $80. Just an F.Y.I.

Good Luck.

Re:Dropped Bike 5 Years ago  
Sorry to hear of your "spills" guys. I was washing my Roadie on the wet grass and dumped it over when I slipped. (My ego-killer was the fact that I had to go get my WIFE to help me lift the heavy thing back on it's rubber.
) She still brags about it in front of my buddies. <br><br>Post edited by: StarMyram, at: 2007/05/10 22:11
