CW: description of motorcycle and personal injury 

@foxwitch@queer.af A truck changed lanes into me 4 years ago. Sable's fairings and the upper subframe where her lights, mirrors, and dash were all damaged, and her front rim was bent too.

I kept her upright, but ended up with 3 broken bones in my foot.

I got replacement fairings, but they aren't the highest quality. Gettting OEM grade stuff is expensive as heck.

The wheel is simpler, but still needs some shop work to move the tired from the damaged rim to the good one. I can move the rotors myself. Honestly it wouldn't take much time to get her flying again, but effort, shame and just personal head demons get in the way sometimes. She's been a garage Queen in 3 different houses since the collision, hooked up to a battery tender.
