I feel for you mate!
I looked out the window this morning and found the same thing , bike on it's side with the cover barely attached to the brake lever!
Luckily, there was no damage that I can see!
I have just stood her up again and fixed the cover. I seem to have lost a bit of fuel from the tank as well, and after a couple hours I'll check the levels to make sure they're OK.
Damned wind .
I didn't go to bed till around 2 this morning and the bike was fine then! (but it was blowing like crazy ouside at the time). ____________________ Living the dream....on my little 'ol CG125  |

i didnt fall over, it just got tyred and decided to lie down for a sleep.
be glad you dont have expensive fairings
i found a bike on its side in town, the wind had blown it over, dont know how long it had been lying there , but people were just walking around it, ffs, i had to turn the bike around so the wind was pushing it on to the side stand instead of away from it, i left him a note, as he had cracked fairings and what not, havn't heard from him though ____________________ the humans are dead

Define mint.
Never put covers on bikes just for that reason, it also promotes corrosion at the bike can't dry properly with a cover on. ____________________ Andy Sez....

By some what of a miracle, my CB-1 didn't blow over last night.
My neighbours are getting rather cheesed off as we have a shared plant section between our driveways and when my bike falls over, it makes a nice bike shaped mess in the mud. And it crushes all the plants

I woke to the same sight , although my cover was still fully on.
Nothing broke though, no scratches, no cracks. Although I did something had broken until i realised I pressed the kill switch whilst lifting it up..
Wasn't heavy at all  |
