Damn, that sucks....I was just in a accident last week too on my bike. I lowsided my bike after a slight S turn and lost it somehow. Went down with the bike and ended up tumbling/sliding crashing into the center divider following the bike. Somehow ended up on my back still sliding, now the bike is on top of me. Eventually momentum or me pushing the bike for fear of pinning me came off. Got some good road rash and some stitches on my knee. Thank god I didn't hit my head or break any bones. I feel very fortunate. This is the aftermath of the bike:

Damn RIP man sorry to hear this. This is my first year riding, bought my Harley less then a month ago and put 1000 miles on it... Never had so much fun in my life, it's scary to hear stuff like this.
R.I.P To a fallen fellow rider...
