    Pavement doesn't feel so good

    Well.. just got the new tire on the bike -- pulled out of the parking lot --- and wrecked.. at 15 mph.

    You would think I was 16 and just bought a GSX-R1000 as a first bike..

    No serious damage. I do need a few parts though..

    All TL1000s

    Right Rear Set

    Right Footpeg

    Rear Break Lever

    Right Exhaust Pipe (Header)

    Ohh and Big Shocker - Now the impossible dream...

    TLS Radiator

    If anyone can help me out please let me know.

      You're not the first to drop one with fresh rubber on it. (Thankfully not me though )

        So sorry about the accident, but I had to laugh at that. Good luck.

            That wax on new tires is a beatch! My local bike performance shop warns everyone that has a tire change but he says he still sees a bike a week dropped because of it....

                    My tiller stepped out nicely after the last tire change. Good thing I was almost straight up. A mental note was taken.
                    Don't know how it works? Take it apart and find out!
