Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Cock, arse, and feck...
Why is it anyways the stupid things. Waited until it was nice and dark to with on setting the headlights up properly with the LED bulbs. All going well and happy with the setup, just pushing the bike backwards onto the drive and the house light guess out. I miss judged the drop kerb and hit it with the rear wheel and down she went.
Fortunately they only damage is a bent brake lever, broken hand guard, and a few minor scratches on the exhaust.
The biggest dent is in my shin where the peg caught me on its way down.

Bugger, sorry to read that D6Nutz.
I guess it could have been worse, but that's not going to be much consolation right now I guess.

A non riding bike drop must be one of the most frustrating things to do with your bike. I’ve had a few over the years.

I can't get over how clean that bike is... Even spudda would struggle to find a bit too clean...
