Just think what the rider must look like  :sad:
Better to be old and grey than the alternative!

BLOODY HELL! 

That's a scary looking mess...  Especially considering where the instrument pack is  :no:

I hope that whoever was on that survived.....

The pre 2010 models were never as robust as the newer models.   :whistling:

Looks like a very heavy impact with something far more solid than it, have to agree, I hope whoever was on that got off safely!

For those who have not read the GTR assembly manual, the first page reads

1.Suspend the exhaust over a clean,flat piece of ground.
2. Bolt rest of bike to exhaust.

Ride it, clean it.

Easiest way to keep it clean is not to ride it  :popcorn:
