Dropped it !!
 
Gave the front brakes a wee service today so took her out to make sure they were OK.

Got back.... did the old sidestand shuffle and down she went.:oops:

Spent the last couple of hours trying to bend back the main bracket holding the left hand lower. Radiatior very slightly kinked and a couple of scuffs to the left lower.

What a numpty I am. :smt022

Damn frustrating when that happens. :mad: I presume it's all roadworthy now and no problem for GMII

We got back from a ride today to find the headlamp broken by a stone. New light is £300 plus apparently so bought some lens covers to keep the glass intact until after we get back.

I have it all back together again and taken it for a ride and all is good. Just embarrassingly annoying.:oops:

Hurt my ribs by either twisting myself when I dropped it or lifting it back up again...dunno which but I will survive.

Still.. I would far rather have a 0mph drop than one when moving. Don't like the moving ones.
