I'll give the official write up tonight.
First off, I am perfectly fine. Walked away without a single scratch. Thats why you always wear your gear. Its amazing how well it can protect you.
Actually I went down in Turn 6 (the uphill left). Not sure what happen as I did not have any problems in that corner all day until that point, but I was leaning left and next thing I know the back end just slid out on me. Only thing I can think is I may have had my tire pressures a little high as I set them early in the AM when it was like 60 degrees and at that time it was 75-80.
The bike overall is fine, pretty much all the damage is cosmetic. I was able to pick it up and start it, so I know the internals are fine. Since it is a slower corner and I was already leaned over, I didn't have far to fall. So the bike basically slid on the left side. It did not tumble or flip, so the sliders pretty much took the blunt of the damage.

Glad to hear your ok boss
Atleast its mostly cosmetic, just give everything a good going over and you will be able to get back out there. I check my pressures about everyth other session

Are those Vortex frame sliders? That bolt bent or snapped bad...and i've heard that about Vortex before...hopefully that comes out easy.
Glad to hear your okay.
