i'm a plonker...

[Bibio]

guess who just dropped their bike...

sillyworks me.. just took it off the paddock stand put it on the sidestand.. turned round to put some tools away and ... SMASH.. bike on floor...

lesson learnt ... get your fuk!n side stand cut down you plonker...

not to bad .. scratched lower, burst indicator, snapped front brake leaver and bent rear brake leaver... ooohhh well such is life...

[shonadoll]

Oh bums! Bad luck mate.

[dawn07]

:smt047We've all done it pal. Don't worry.
Crash bungs were the best things invented!
Glad the damage isn't too bad

[ScottishRawker]

whats wrong with your sidestand that caused that to happen?

OOPS! I think Bibio forgot to put the side stand down?

Sorry to hear that Bibio, like you said, we all do it. Fill up at the pump, get off to go and pay, oops, forgot the stand! At least you weren't under your bike. Material things can be replaced. ;)

[Dave20046]

I think bibio forgot which side the stand was on? :scratch:
Unless this isn't an sv the side stand should be on the left where as the front brake lever is on the right :scratch:

Either that or the stand was way to long and not stable :-?

[Bibio]

nope i put the sidestand down...

but since my bike is about 2" lower than standard the bike sits up to straight when on the stand...

so down to the workshop next week to cut and weld the bugger...

[Dave20046]

makes sense.

Badluck :(

[Jamiebridges123]

Bad luck mate. :|

[Jillyburd]

Oh poo. :smt087

[appollo1]

oh no!!!! hope there's not too much damage mate.

[fenjer]

Awww noes!

Sorry to hear that Bibio!

(makes me feel a bit better tho! ;) )

[jaromic]

Theres something wrong with them grey pointys mate, coz mine fell on the same side. I couldn't blame the side stand or anythin else tho, i was turning it round so was all my fault. It hadn't even got 50miles on the clock when i done it.

Your now a fully fledged member of the bike droppers club, and its got quite a few members, lol

Hope the damage isn't too bad
