Never a good thing to have happen... what was lucky for me is it was 6:30 in the morning and no one saw me

Believe it or not, one small scratch on the new screen and one tiny mark on the freshly painted lower fairing and crank cover. Typical as I have a R & G cover arriving tomorrow too.

Crap, that sucks man,

TT will have a rage if he sees this post,
but when he was moving my bike for some photos (standing on the brake side) he thought the kick stand was still down, but nope, down she went haha

Hope noone seen you do it, its always the worst
