I think what I came up on was a low speed "high side", The bar put a short gouge in the dirt/gravel and Mikey was clear of the bike by a couple of feet. He bounced hard enough and maybe his recent cancer treatments left him a little more brittle. Good to see him stitched together.
When it seemed apperrent that Mikey was upright, coherent, not injured significantly, (almost no road rash, back of his hands with minor scrape IIRC) and First Reponders were on site, I looked over the bike briefly, remembering it was a Mailman build (IIRC) and saw windshield and turnstalk and ear damage and maybe a muff scuffed. Soft luggage may have had some scuffs also. It is such a pretty bike I was happy to see the paintwork seemed undamaged and no case damage was visible. I am an Amatuer and don't see the whole picture and as a group on that ride, we were more concerned for Mikey, his comfort and the speedy response of the reponders.
