what are the white pegs on the side for? pardon my bike ignorance

They are frame sliders. If you lay the bike down, they take the brunt of the fall and in most cases lessen the damage to the bike by 75% or more. They especially keep the fairings from being damaged, which is usually the most expensive part.

yeah, i had those same sliders on my bike, those ones arent technically frame sliders but fairing sliders and they dont do shit if you wreck your bike actually riding, but will reduce damage if its tipped over. Its cuz those mount in the fairing screw holes, instead of the engine mount bolt which is much larger and stronger. Id look into getting some engine mount ones if they make them for that model, im not sure....

Well, real or not real, they already saved most of the fairing when the bike was layed down Saturday. Granted it was only I was only going 30, and the bike only slid at the most 5 ft. The only damage came from the actual impact of the car itself.

 

P.S. Those are post wreck pictures. If you look close you can see the left side Stay is broken off and the shifter is just hanging by the pedle.
