          I've spent most of my money on women, beer, cars and motorcycles. The rest of it I just wasted.

                  Ok. But the real question is HOW did you break your frame?
                  Don't spend money and buy, spend time and learn.

                      T1, soft grass got a good grip on the rearsets and snapped the mounts, something I expect on Ducati but not on Hawk

                          They don't still have a Tig welder up there?

                              I've crashed there 1000 times. Usually a pretty good place to crash and not mess the bike up too bad.

                                              Hope you’re okay. Plans to rebuild it?

                                                  Welp, that's a hit. Doesn't look unsalvageable but it looks like a lot of work.

                                                  It appears, from here, to be mostly cosmetic. Can you fire a new set of track fairings on it and still use it for track duty while you try and get the street sorts collected again ?


                                                  Listen, if you don't want to fix that I understand completely. Just pack it up and send it to me, I'll make sure I give it a good home

                                                      It'll be good - started stripping down for extensive rebuild and then it gets binned out for a V4s or an 1198.
                                                      That's what happens when a wide open throttle jams against a brake lever guard by shifting 2mm to the right. 130mph straight into a tyre wall. Just bruises & sprains. I'm luckier than Kylie, so there, ner.

                                                          Your bike took a pretty good hit but it's only a Ducati, so you're good.
