Not totaled, just a broken leg.

I was looking for opinions on fairing kits as well as some pictures of the stone white fairing monster. I'm thinking of converting.

Any other accident stories welcome, preferably "innocent rider, wreckless driver" type stuff.

Glad you're relatively ok. i saw the stone white at eicma.  nice but i wonder f it would stay white as cleaning would be a pregnant dog
seems minor damage all around so just parts.  full rebuild =time and money

be happy

do you mean the artic white silk color?  the matte white?

it stays clean pretty easily, and because of the matte finish, small imperfections dont really show up on it.  i rarely every washed my bike and it never looked dirty.  it made a great contrast with the gloss red frame and everyone who saw it always loved the way it looked.

that being said, i heard that the oe solid color skins are more expensive than the monster art kits.  might want to keep that in mind before buying.  and you can always just go with the default best looking corse skins.

and hope you're feeling better and that the leg break isnt too bad.  at least it happened going into the end of the riding season and not the start of the new one.
