Nice one... I don't think the sidestand could drop you if it fell down while moving though, it wouldn't extend fully so it'd just drag along... Did you find any essential bits of your bike lying at the side of the road? Or perhaps some handy bone fragments?

Anyway, glad to hear you're back on 2 wheels, just don't do it again!

Little time, little money, lot of effort, not pretty, but functional.

Cheers Mark.

Made a bodged hanger mark II. Think it will do the trick

Yup keeping my eye on it Mark. There doesn't seem to be any signs of a leak. Can't be that bad. I think it may be under the tank somewhere. But like I said, no signs of water.
