Bah! Got cutoff on the freeway at about 25 mph... Locked up front wheel. FZ-09 on the pavement. For the most part not too bad. I'm fine, just a little sore. Over 10 year of riding and no issues with my FZ1, and less than a month with the new bike... :crybaby2:
Only damage is to the right bar end, rear brake lever broke, and some scratches to right side engine covers. Minor scratches to the mirror and turn signal. Should have gotten those frame sliders!!! Bah!!!
Also, though, the clutch isn't engaging, but it's just due to the cable being very loose rather than (I hope) damage to the actual clutch... I think when it hit the pavement, the spring-loaded lever on top of the clutch cover got whacked out of place.
Could someone post a close up of the spring-loaded lever where the clutch engages, right above the clutch cover so I can check if the angle is off?
