14k miles down, and so is the bike

So, I came a cropper on a road used by construction traffic (less than 100yds off site) and the road slightly damp. At approx 20mph, front wheel slid out from me while making a slight left turn.

Good news was no serious physical injury, and no serious damage to the bike. The only thing that stopped me riding the thing home was a broken gear lever.  On picking up a replacement from the dealer, saw a street triple with LED turn signals. Turns out no modification to bodywork to get these on. The Triumph has a separate bolt hole to where the wires go through.

So post-crash, me thinks some modding is in order!!
