I keep being tempted to put the bike away for the winter, but every morning as I go past the warm people in their cars, I'm glad that I was in bed an extra half an hour and don't have to get frustrated in traffic jams.

Sorry to hear about that man. I nerely did the same thing outside my mates house, just starting off home. didn't see that I was in a big patch of leaves and went to pull away - back end swung through 90 degrees and i only just managed to keep my footing. I can manage ice, but icy leaves!!! now that really takes the p*ss!

Why is it so easy to come off on ice etc at low speed but as soon as you get going you seem fine? wierd. I guess you have more forward momentum to get you through the odd patch or two.

Bad luck James mate. At least its only a small bump, and pride does get restored easily!!
I have new keyboard and it is not working so I can't type much sorry.

Well I've already managed to buy a new rear fairing panel from ebay. Gonna wait till after winter before ordering a new front fairing from suzuki- unless one comes up cheap before then.
Also managed to scratch my lower panel too which is an ar5e!

Don't particularly want to go up to the pub anytime soon though- cuz I know everyones gonna laugh when I go up next!!!
