We all do it. Many of us more than once. Most of the time right outside our houses, in our drives, and always in public places!
Put on some crash bungs if you dont have some already.

Congratulations! You can now start rideing the bike properly.
Theory is that after the 1st time you drop a new bike you wont be as worried about doing it again, and you relax more so your rideing improves....

As long as there isn't any fairing damage, you got off lightly. The scratch on the exhaust gives you an excuse to get a race can.

If your rideing in London, then its likely that you will have an off at somone point. Hell if your rideing a bike, its likely to happen. Best thing is be prepared for it, always wear your protective gear, even if your just going down the road etc..

Get some crash bungs on and your be set!

Someone wise once said, there are two types of bikers, thoes who have come off and thoes who are going to come off.
