Default Recent Spills?

Hi ppl, new to the forum.

Anybody got a story about a recent spill or off? (usually a nice ice breaker to find us "fallers" are not alone)

I keep my bike (curvy sv) at my folks who have a garage. As i dismounted i realised (too late) that the side stand wasn't down. I fell with my SV accompanying me to the ground.

Sore left leg and my bike got her first battle scars!

i suppose that cop was just doing his job at the end of the day although it sounds like he may have been a little too eager???

i'm quite pro police, just the ones who have it in for bikers i don't like.

glad your pal was okay.
