I feel your pain I still cant remember what happened when I wrecked mine a few months ago I think I hit the side of a hole and flipped. I had some bent racks and my plastics were shifted, but after a bit of banging and work it looks like new.

**** son! I've seen 'em with the bars and steering stem bent down to even height with the tank and rack, but I've never seen rack--bumper-front plastic damage like that. It must have gone tumbling and not just flipped over. I really can't believe your box is still intact!

Yeah it came straight up and back and tumbled like that twice before sliding the rest of the way down the hill upside down. I really wasnt worried about the fourwheeler at all, just my wife. I made sure she was ok for about ten minutes because she was pretty shook up. Then me and a buddy went to flip the Honda over and I was like holy crap. I couldn't believe the damage. Ive rolled my ride a couple times in the past and it just tweeked the bars and plastic. Easy fixes. That box probably saved me a good beating. It kept the fourwheeler from coming all the way down on top of me. Except for a torn arm pad it still looks new. I had to remove the two bolts from the front rack to bend the bumper and racks off the tires to drive it home. Then it started to overheat pretty quick and I realized the bracket on the radiator fan had bent and the fan was touching the radiator not allowing it to spin. So I bent that back and it was a pretty easy ride from there. Still drives straight and runs like you expect a honda would. Just pretty embarrassing when passing people on the street and there all pointing and laughing. My ego and bruises will heal, wish I could say the same for my honda.
