Had my first off this morning! Got myself an SV650S at the start of the month after passing test at the end of Feb.

Just a combination of not getting much sleep last night, not concentrating and going a bit too fast. Was approaching a roundabout, looking at a car coming from the other way and didnt notice the chicane in the road and ended up heading straight to the kerb! Luckily the R&Gs took most of the damage. Only thing wrong is a bit snapped off the gear lever and a couple of scratches to the left indy and mirror. Small scratch on the fairing too.

Just lucky no other cars were involved I guess.

Just need to try and get the gear lever sorted now!

I feel like such an idiot

It happens, especially early in your biking career.

You know what happened, try not to do it again. Thumbs Up

I remember my first off ha ha. I was on my ts 50 and seen a lovely piece of arse walking passed but not the road curving or the lampost I headbuttered. Woke up in Hossi with bruised ego Embarassed
