I went down tonight. About 15mph in a turn lost the back end when scrubing the rear brake. Not even a scratch on the leathers but I can't say the same for the S4. Can is a mess, a bit of rash on the Dixie Hat, a bit of rash on the RR tail, and the R bar-break lever is done. The plastic just needs paint but the rest needs replaced. The bike only slid about 4-5 feet. I am going to finally get the pipe, and maybe even bar risers for the new set!

DOMS-Delayed Onset Muscular Soreness. it is common. usually 48hrs after is when you feel it the most, and it will taper off, especially in the legs. if it dosen't fade after maybe 4 days i would go see a Doc, you might have a pulled muscle or full on avulsion

Sounds like we have a Corpsman in the house! Good to know. I have this lump (Joking) for you to look at. I think the pain is my pride. I woud however like to know a bit more about your bar conversion.
