Thanks for everyone's responses. I am the only one responsible but I hate that my days of riding are over because of something this simple.

Thanks everyone. I am not trying to lay blame on anyone but myself. I am just trying to get straight in my mind what could have happened.

I bought a 06 RSTD on the 13th of July and crashed it on the 14th. My wife and I have been recovering and I have been working on the bike (damage was all cosmetic). When I bought the bike I paid the dealer to do a complete service so I assumed everything was straight. The accident was very strange and it was hard to describe what happened, it drifted right and just went down in a blink of an eye (I have been riding for several years). I test rode the bike this Saturday around my circle (very low speed), the bike felt very uncomfortable and I almost had a panic attack. Today at work I started thinking about the tire pressure so when I got home I checked the front and it read 15 lbs. could the fact that we were riding 2 up with that low of pressure have contributed to an accident??

Just found OEM headlight on ebay for $129. has slight rash on rim but overall great condition. Thanks for everyone's help. Wife having surgery this Friday to repair her knee from the accident, please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

Thanks Bill! I have been on ebay but i will try the other place. Thanks for the heads up.

Rick, thanks for the link. Yes the housing is smashed. Laid it down and windshield and headlight caught the guard rail. I will probably go with a aftermarket setup.

DJH3, the RSTD is totally different from the Venture, chrome bucket. I wish i could find a fairing cheap enough to convert front end to Venture style. I'm not in a huge hurry so i have options. Thanks for the input.

Anyone have an aftermarket headlight solution for the 06 RSTD?? I can't see dropping 500 plus on the OEM. Thanks
