Dang buddy. i hate to hear that you hurt your leg! I'm glad it wasn't any worse than it was,though. Yeah,that front brake can fold you up pretty fast

I hope it feels much better,real quick I hate to ask,but how's the bike?

I've heard it more than once:  it's not IF you lay your bike down, it's WHEN.  Thankfully, it was only once for me, at a stoplight/intersection, where I got the lesson "Go straight, then turn" and not vice versa.  Just laid it on the crash bars and the left peg.  I picked it up in short order (adrenaline is a wonderful thing), walked it to the side of the crossroad, started it back up, and drove off.

Glad to hear you are OK, and it's a cosmetic thing instead of something broken (you AND the bike).  Heal up quickly.
