hope your feelin better Bob!
I crashed in 10. It was my very first race of the year. I hit the transition bump while leaned over (raining). Jeff W. and a few others told me to never be at full lean when you hit that bump in the wet. I don't know if that was the case for you?
Did you dent the tank?
get well soon......
peace
