As the title says… flipped my V2 ... over end 4/6 times at 135 mph. So far.. mostly cosmetic. Everything looks straight except the swing arm bolts may be bent and the rear sub frame. Going to bring it to Dr. John’s and see what they can fix. As for me.. class 3 shoulder separation. Hit the ground and tumbled about 100 yards. Pretty lucky to not have anything worse.

Sorry to hear but glad you're ok. This reminds me why I don't make it to the track much anymore, one slip can cost you thousands.
 
Thanks. To each their own. A Ducati that never sees the track is a waste of money IMO.

Sorry to hear about the wreck, and I’m glad your injuries aren’t more serious. Keep us updated on the extent of the repairs.

I do think, however, a V2 is also suited to the mountains as well.

Dang, glad you're ok. That's a pretty big spill. I watched my 848 dance down the street like that in a WAY slower crash. I couldn't believe it was just plastic I had to fix. Dang things are pretty tough.
 
it flipped 4-6 times and the rims aren't bent ? mine got tossed at 90 this summer end over end and well, she a little bit rougher.
The swing arm was tossed, and clip-ons, rims were smashed to ...., bent rotors. Still solid engine, frame , triple, forks. even cracked the display monitor.
Front stay was crushed in, even gouged the rear sprocket.

Rear wheel it bent. Swing arm might be bent
 
I think your definition of "cosmetic" is different than mine. :oops: Hope you get it straight/fixed and don't have to part it out.
