what happened? you just ran over it, or fell? how did the fairing get damaged?

what happened? you just ran over it, or fell? how did the fairing get damaged?

I neither ran over nor fell down...........cat jumped from a wall to cross the road.....i was at a speed of 80-90 kmph.......cat too was in a hurry ....SO it hit my right lover fairing and fell on the road and with no time it was dead...........I checked my fairing at the spot itself and found that my right lover fairing got a crack........at that time I was concerned about the life of the kitten.....felt so sad about it........After reaching home i went for a detailed check of my fairing.
In the starting itself I understood that my lower fairing is broken like hell............then i removed the upper fairing and the understood things are....... The bolting joint of upper fairing is broken, Both right and left lower fairing re broken(ie. they re connected in the bottom), right fairing already have a lot of scratched........So I ll be going for the replacement of the whole fairing........so my record is going high..............hehehe.............
So my bike will be taking rest for 2 or 3 weeks............

Hi guys, Am staying in banglore, had been to a couple of G2G's in banglore. I am coming home(trichur) for around 15 days in sept. But it wil be boring without any rides. I want to know if there will be any cochin G2G's or some rides in the first two weeks of sept? And are there any plans of going to athirapilly? its around 70 kms from where I stay? Please let me know if you are planning for some meet?

Good to know youre safe. Lucky that it happened to a seasoned rider like you who wont panic in such a situation. Had it been some guy new to bikes they wouldve panicked and lost control immediately and fallen. Reminds me of this chap from Blore on the Yercaud ride who went smack bang into a dog while part of the hyper speed group. His fairing took a beating & radiator also was slowly leaking. Plus his footpeg was bent. Just make sure to check that the mechanicals arent affected.

Praveen, your bike will be puzzled if it is given 2 - 3 weeks of rest !
