    Arghhh I dropped my vfr :Cry::Cry::Cry::Cry::Cry:

    I'd just arrived at work & when I went to park up, I kicked the side stand out & heard it click or so I thought, so I went & got off the bike but when I turned round to open the top box, the bike fell on me side aways & I was stuck under the bike & had to get a guy in the carpark to lift the bike off me :( as I didnt want to squeeze myself out & cause more damage to the bike, so the left hand side fairing got a few bad scratchess & has marked the black paint, the left mirror also was scratched along the plastic front.

    the annoying thing is that I was going to get a set of R&G crash bungs this weekend :mad:

    as for dropping it, I forgot that the sidestand is quite long on the vfr & I should have checked it was fully open but I didn't as the parking space I was pulling into was on an uphill camber & I just stepped off & as you now know, I arse'd it up.

    Sorry ta hear about your drop, at least you got it out of the way now.
    It eventually happens to all of us--- better standing still then sliding down the road.
