Still glad you're fine and sharing.  Have been all over Hwy 14 as it's right here in my neck of the woods.  A lot of it has been paved and worked so many times the crown of the road has you down slope away from your own turns.  Throw in a little gravel under a back wheel to make it kick out and away and you're in deep doodoo in a hurry.  Once it started probably not a good intention nor a good idea in the world that would've kept the bike upright.

Good luck on getting repaired or replaced as you wish.  Can certainly understand not wanting to lose one that feels right and didn't have its frame bent or drive train tweaked.  Will keep my finger crossed for a speedy settlement and repair/replacement.

Know the feeling and glad your ok. I'm not sure but aren't Harley's anti-lock brakes supposed to help  :nixweiss:. I know a very experienced rider who reports he doesn't think so especially when compaired to BMW's system. I guess gravel could defeat any system though.  Doc

Thats preliminary.. they'll probably find more bits and pieces as they tear down to do the actual repairs.
