That's downright scary. How do your rotors look? One of those pad carriers looks a bit scored.

[fragile_this_side_up]

They're fine. Luckily...

Glad to report nothing exciting has happened. Been having to commute home in the dark and MAN, the light output is ATROCIOUS!!! I'm going to wash the bike today at lunch. like, 3rd time ever? haha. Coming up on 18500 this weekend, so it'll be time for an oil change..

For my commute, i'm extremely happy with how little squaring is going on. 80% of my 125 mile round trip commute is rte 66..

I also have this going on:

Such CF

[fragile_this_side_up]

SUCH CRAP!!! I got a new job, Yay! So i bought a box truck to use. Yay! so i went to pick up the truck, and used the aluminum ramp to get my Ducati on the back... And dropped the bike from halfway up......  Luckily, it fell on me so it had a pretty soft landing.. Still, bent the handle bars and broke the mirror...

Oh BTW, the cargo ramps for box trucks that have been used a bit are slippery as make the beast with two backs. Stripes of grip tape can help a bunch....

That really sucks.

Don't neglect a visit to the doc if you're hurting a couple days still. A bike is not a light object to have fall upon one.

And what's the  plan for the truck?
