On 17 octber 2003 I crashed my ZR-7.
I approached a T-junction where I had to go left. As I started turning I realized I still had too much speed and pulled the front brake.... ... a bit too hard and down I went. My left leg was trapped underneath the bike and I couldn't lift the bike enough to free it. A car driver rescued me.
I am OK, but it looks like this bike will be off the road for a while.

Damage from front
This does not look too disturbing untill you realize the handlebar is straight and the front wheel is pointing left!

Damaged front fork
I think this front fork needs to be replaced .....

Damaged alternator cover
.... and this alternator cover too.
