Fox, I can tell you exactly what the parts cost as I low-sided mine a couple of weeks ago on the left side.
Muffler: $711.77
Fairing - side: $872.67
Fairing - nose: $635.94
Front guard: $276.52
Mirror: $105.75
Clutch lever: $68.70
Magneto cover: $73.54
Fairing stickers: $142.67
Centre stand: $219.21
Side stand: $112.15
Front brake caliper: $685.31
These prices are retail in australian dollars and were supplied by a Suzuki dealer as part of an insurance quote. There are some more bits on the quote which take it to about $6000.00 for a 90 kph slide up the road.
Moral of the story: Don't chase a 996 duke up the Oxley highway from Port Macquarie through the 25 - 35 kph bends and expect to stay upright trying to keep it in sight.
