After only 3 weeks of having my bike sprayed I managed to drop it! Rolling Eyes

Rushing home for a driving lesson, I went to put it on the stand, but didnt put the stand down enuf! Embarassed

and it smashed on my gravel drive. The side fairing has been scratched up and the top side fairing has cracked! Im sooo annoyed now! Just as i was gonna sell it as well Evil or Very Mad

tut, of course you can still ride it. Clutch or no clutch. I had to ride 4 miles home with no clutch once. Thumbs Up

Not a good thing when the traffic lights turn red tho.

Guess I was really lucky with mine as far as damage goes. Cracked the rear plastic and put a tiny scratch on the rear peg, think the wheel may be buckled as it's got a slight mark on the rim, and when my dad rid it home for me he said the wheel was oscillating slightly. Took it in yesterday to be done, gonna cost me £26 for the wheel so it aint bad. Thing is I've got another year of physio to do before I can properly ride it again.

Shame to hear you dropped your bike mate, just think it's a good job you weren't riding it cos maybe you'd of done yourself as well as the bike.

Major bummer Thumbs Down

One day I flipped my sidestand down, leaned the bike over and
down I went. The sidestand fell off, the bolt was missing!!

How the stand stayed in place without the bolt was a mystery!

saturday - 3 hours cleaning ... wheeled it back into the garage ... and dropped it. Luckily a foolhardy/ brave bucket and two cardboard boxes gave their lives in the vain attempt to save the old girl ... a quick heft of the bent silencer later ... broom broom
