Riding home from work on 35 North before the Northwest Hwy exit.. This mexi truck with this welded in work bullshit in the bed decided to unload an 8 foot piece of box steel tubing. I was in the right lane doing about 75ish as I see this thing tumbling down the higway about 20 feet in front of me to the left.... I'm like "oh shit, what the fuck is this thing going to do?" So I just chilled and started to get over towards the shoulder as I watched this pipe like it was in slow motion. I started to get in it a little and right as I came up to pass it, it shot sideways and tagged the bottom of my bike. I wasn't for sure if it had actually hit me until I made it home. The front brake caliper has a nasty gash in it and also my left side mid and lower fairing... MOTHER FUC$#@S!!!!!!!! I was cool but the bike is no long scratch free.
