    Sorry to hear about the accident. I hope your shoulder is not too bad and you recover quickly. We all take chances on short rides maybe this will remind us all to wear our gear more often. It is usually something out of our control that gets us in trouble.

    Parts

    Geronimo, here's to a speedy recovery. Let me dig through my parts box and see if I have anything for your right mirror. It is around $156 to replace completely. As for the hard parts, if the crash bars aren't bent up you can hit them with a scotchbrite pad and send them to a powder coater. They will cost you about $200 to replace them both and around $20 to get them coated. You can do the same for the aero peg.

    Wow, that sucks. Sorry to hear this. It's a reminder that occasionally we can succumb to events beyond anyone's control. The outcome would have been much worse on a traditional cruiser. Get rest, heal up.

    Simon, it was on I71 southbound at the frank road/104 exit east, a lot of tar patching and that morning extra special sauce. Thanks everyone, usually I ride in Icon elsinore hp boots and Duluth pants(convinced to get them from here) and Fox creek leather, just an odd morning thinking it would be too hot later, sweat is easier to wipe off. The bars will just be touched up, not sure if I will try to replace the madstad mounting plate, just the mirror needs attention or super glue.
