No kidding. I'm amazed. Doing all my own labor helped, but still ... Needed to replace everything on the right clipon (including the clip on itself), except for the body of the brake cylinder, which was okay. Everything was stripped off of it, though, so needed new resevoir, etc. Levers (nice ones from Wunderlich) somehow lived through it. Steering stop mashed (still is). Incredibly, ALL the front fairing is intact and not even that scratched up - windscreen was ejected at some point (3rd flip?), headlight was fine, oil cooler happily hanging from a shattered support frame. The inner "hoop" fairing frames in the front - you know, the expsnive magnesium alloy ones - were busted into 6 pieces, but nothing a welder couldn't take care of (good thing, that's $1k easy). Bizarre that it broke so badly but the overlying fairing was fine. Some whipping action took place on one of the impacts, methinks. The RG puck on the rear drive shaft/swing arm joint saved me another $2k. Rizoma pegs ground a bit but fine.
Summary: I'm freaking lucky.
