Please do NOT follow behind any kind of minivan or truck where you can't see over the top of the vehicle. Was behind minivan..guy hits what looked like a complete shredded tire and flings it toward me. He swerves to left shoulder. I decide to try to slow and take it straight on. No time to swerve and was'nt sure if car to right of me. Hits my left front/rotor breaking off some of carrier and warping disc. I luckily could make it over to shoulder. More pissed than anything else. I was supposed to ride to Phil's remembrance next weekend. Don't know if I can go by bike now. Guess I should consider myself lucky though.

Sorry to here this M8...

Glad you came out of it all right though. The bike can be fixed!:thumbs up:
 
What year is your bike, I might have a spare rotor.
 
Hayabusa front end and rotors so i don't think you have it..thanks though. Yes I was glad I did'nt go down. i think if i had swerved and then it hit me it may have caused the front wheel to slide out
