Title: Ouch (Glad I ride a simple bike!)
Post by: guest18 on July 05, 2008, 10:41:57 PM

Was up at the local bike shop getting a new front tyre when I saw a nice clean newish CB900RRXX or whatever they're called parked outside, was admiring it's understated (factory) mattish paint and restrained logos etc... when I walked round the other side and saw it had had a medium low speed drop  :-\
Hmm trashed factory silencer £ scuffed mudguard £ scuffed levers and pedals ££ destroyed indicator and mirror £££ smashed main fairing, and inner fairing, and moulding, and headlamp shroud, and mounts etc etc ££££££££££££££££££££  :o

Hope he's got comp insurance otherwise that low speed spill will be the birth of another "streetfighter"! Walked away congratulating myself on owning a bike which is (up to a point) designed to fall over with minimal damage!  ;)
