Default How fast do you think he was going?
Lowsided a left hander, probably slid about 20 - 25 ft before the bike hit the curb.

Force of the impact caused enough pressure from the inside to break the rim in the center.

other damages to the bike include:

slightly bent subframe
swingarm
left rear set
fairing stay
most plastics damaged

frame sliders did their job, saved the frame.
