First and only crash so far, gravelly twisty road, me over confident, wasnt going overly fast, but didnt pay enough attention to the gravel, slid on it, left side went down at about 60km/h, hit my knee, smacked my head and slid into the ditch.
Aftermath: broken helmet (kept my head protected, i didnt even feel that big of a thump!)
was wearing regular jeans, not a good idea, sliced open my left side knee, and i still have scar tissue about the size of a nickle on my knee cap, dead skin. knee hurts from time to time, i think its from the small accident.
other than that, got up limping, and healed quickly!

bike aftermath: scratched left mirror, front cowl. cracked left fairing, bent shift lever, and brake lever.
