Good to hear you're mostly OK, but, not a good way to learn how crashworthy a bike is ...
Bummers about the crash, but good to hear that you're okay...hope the SD is not too bad off...

It made it through remarkably unscathed. Scuffed up the upper and lower frame slider on the right side, the bar end and the peg on the new rear-sets, plus a scratch on the mirror. The only things that actually got broken was the front brake lever (at the break-away point) and the left rear turn signal, which either his bike took off or my foot did when I (mini) high-sided my way into the air.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Well, shit. Very glad that you're mostly OK & the bike too.

R-Lo's are low mounts (695)... I really like the hyper's 2-1 Ti system. but I don't like the price. otherwise they have a carbon 2-2 slip-on that is undertail like the stock
Good on you for gettin' with it.
The Hyper is about turning and not top speed but, of course, you already know that!
I installed the Termi 1 into 2 slip ons on my friends HM1100. They won't make big noise even with the dB killers out. Your old 620 with the Arrows was louder than the slip on set up. I know because my friend's wife has a 620 and it's louder than his Hyper. The good thing with that is the ECU and the fueling. I'd go with the the 2 into 1 pipe up the side but as you say....... very pricey.
Maybe you could get a homemade exhaust recipe from Will.

I'm fine with it not being loud, just miss the deeper tone and all that. if I stay undertail, I do like how the Zard pentas look, and I don't know if I really need the full cat-deleted setup and all that. also not sure about the whole ECU reflash thing vs. warranty.
my issue with the termi is that it's CF... not a fan, really. I was also told that the extended warranty applies to DP bits installed on the bike, so sticking with termi would make the most sense.
meh. broke anyway. exhaust is waaayyyy down the line if I ever do it.

Was it just not clearing a turn or was it more a he thinks a right turn is happening and you think a straight is happening? Almost like when Lester almost took out Craig down at the bottom of Snake Road where the right turn to Haleiwa is?
Did I miss something or was there little to none discussion of that over at CAM?

Well... I had never been on the part of the route that we were on, so Brian was leading. We had discussed ahead of time that we were going to stay on Old 55W for most of the way, so all seemed good. We were coming up on an intersection, with a stop sign, that was sign posted O 55W straight ahead, so we were all slowing down. As we were almost at the intersection, I started to pull alongside Brian just as he leaned over and decided to turn right without indicating. Didn't really have any time to react as he ran into me immediately after he initiated the turn. I started to reach out and push/kick him away, but both bikes had already tangled by then and down we went.
Haven't really been talking much about it over in CAM as I said what I had to say to him at the scene.
