The forks don't look like they took a front end hit. Hard landing?

The same guy has an 08 xb on ebay. Steering angle looks a little steep!

Ouch, damn!
That hurts just thinking about it.
The forks are definitely tweaked on the XB.

That's actually NOT the only one on Ebay with frame damage like that!

I'd like to know how hard a hit these two bikes took to break the frames the way they did? I'm racing an '08 just like these!! I'll be keeping the wheelies to a minimum....

Avc8130, I spy DHM sliders + Precision Eng brake lever, it might just belong to a badwebber!

The frames are designed to break on impact, BUT they're designed to break in a manner so that the fuel is contained within the frame.
I don't see how that could happen with so little damage done to the rest of that R.

FAIL

Fuel doesn't look contained to me. This guy is lucky it didn't turn into a fireball! All of that heated fuel spilled out onto the hot radiators/engine/exhaust. Looks like a safety hazard. Better send all of those dangerous 1125s to me.
