Got my MC endorsement yesterday after an all week quest to hit all the right steps in the right order to get street legal.  Starting to get more comfortable on it....and laid her down at lowish speed in (unbeknownst to me at the time) one of the worst curves for motorcyclists in my parish.  By sheer force of will I was able to keep the fenders off the gravel and only earned myself a very tiny tank rash that'll mostly buff out. Handblebar cap crushed, but replacement was previously planned. Footboard is bent and will have to be lovingly tapped back down parallel, but it's earned it's place of honor after I decide to replace it. That board saved the bike. Oh, and the left turn signal is obliterated.

Not counting the lil bit of tank paint work added to my fender paint chip repair in the future, probably ~$100 worth of dmg.  Gravel sucks, y'all.

*removed nonblurred license plate pix...whoops* - just a pic of a crushed turn sig
