Yep. I lowsided Clay's bike.
I wouldn't have been on it if I didn't have a mechanical with my bike - my exhaust broke a clamp bolt and abolutely cooked my powercommander and underseat tray.
That's already a $250 kick in the nuts.
But, no, I need to make it WORSE for myself, so I take Clay's bike into HWSB.
Well, Clay's bike launches like a rocket. I took the holeshot, I think pretty cleanly.
I took the Yucca turn for two laps just fine.
The third one, I was trying to hold a tighter line on the 1200 Michelin slick, and the thing simply let go - full lock in an instant. I tried to pick the bike back up, but then it was all Earth-Sky-Dirt-Dust.
I don't think the damage will be bad, but Mikey says he'll pull it apart and for me to have my credit card handy...

OK, have at me, bitches.
