Good luck getting the bike sorted.  Despite the circumstances hope it's a fun and easy project.

Well let me say this. If you had ONE beer it did contribute to it.

Besides that your riding skills is fundamentally way off. If you have to ask what and if you don't understand what happened to you. (I am not bashing you, sorry if it looks like I do. I am just giving it to you straight.)

Get some real good training. Not the MSF crap. One great place to start is The Midwest motorcycle training facility that Doug Wolfe run. Take that class and you will start to understand what is needed. (Doug is a 29 years police Sargent motor officer that is a no nonsense  trainer) you WILL be 100% better just after the first class. (Don't waste time on the Paladino classes)

Anyone that thinks that drinking ONE beer and riding is okay is way off
General Patton aka Doug Wolfe will definitely give it to you straight.  His course is demanding but if you practice what he preaches it will improve your riding skills.  And you will have the 'pleasure' of experiencing a rear wheel lockup and how to handle it properly.  Knowing what to do and what to expect when you encounter one of those OMG moments may be the difference between a crash or an escape.

Hate to hear you crashed, glad you're ok. Still haven't seen or met you even though we live pretty close to each other and have the same bikes. Was wondering who you were going to get to paint the bike? Local guy?
