It's happened
 

Had my first off on the road this morning... Not on the SV. On my longterm YZF-R125. Gutted

Practically the entire route to work and back is a major bus route, so when it's wet there's diesel everywhere. Pulling up to the second to last roundabout from work, when I apply the brakes to slow my speed to walking pace and down she goes.

No warning whatsoever. The front just went really fast... Didn't have a hope of catching it.

Left fairing panel scratched and bent gear selector is all the damage I can see so far which isn't too bad.

Just glad it wasn't the SV.

Was bound to happen soon enough.

AHH plop hun, not nice, but not the SV, and no damage to you I hope?

Re: It's happened
 

No I'm fine... just a bit gutted really...
I was thinking about fitting crash bungs as well ... Definitely getting some for the SV

Unlucky :( at least it wasnt a serious one.

I'm still awaiting my first proper **** to tarmac moment.....although the longer I go without it, I fear it will happen at a faster pace :mad: and therefore be more painful or worse.

Took me five years, it was more embarrassing than painful, and I'd have prefererred an ass to tarmac rather than head:rolleyes:

ah sh1te! hope you're ok! i stacked my 125 into the back of a car in the wet and felt like an utter tit. hope your ego/confidence mends soon!

Ahh sorry to hear that liam, that's no fun. Lucky it wasn't a painful one and the damage isn't too bad. Not nice atall all the same.
