SV Down on top of me :(
 
Was on car park about to turn so wasnt actually turning, was gonig bout 5 - 10 mph ,touched not pulled front brake and bike went down with me about 5 metres and smacked into a car.

Car undamamged luckily but bike not the case, i'm ok just bit of graze on hip and knee and hurt pride, especially considering there was a team of footballing kids bout 10metres away who come over starting to be cocky...

I nearly slapped one, who said oh your bike ain't ****ed up! in a sarcastic manner. Lil tipton ****s lol

I'll get some pics up later

Damage to bike is mostly front where it hit car, completely smashed and l/h/s all fairing scratched and foot peg with heelplate have come off, bracket has snapped, need new blinkers but apart from that, its good, LUCKILY!!!

Argh cold tyres!!! Use the back brake at slow speeds, i know its not cool to use the back brake but it is damn usefull in less than grippy conditions!
