I have a little dent in the frame that is of no consequence, and ended up with a new race ecm, and other doodads such as R&G sliders that give me some peace of mind.
My plan is to start a thread showing my path to figuring out and repairing a bike that was several months ago completely unfamiliar to me.
If anyone ever had a question about a good motorcycle insurance policy, I highly recommend Progressive.
