    Oh brother, what a pickle! Sorry to hear that this has happened mate.
    I'd already waterblasted my entire concrete apron leading up to and into my garge where the bikes reside, so no worries about this one happening here, but had a nasty surprise last week when a mates bike started to move away from me as I mounted my old girl!
    Caught her before things got nasty, but needed to be pushed back up hill while holding onto his bikes handle grip and my girls tank between tightly clenching thighs, stop laughing STONEY I can hear ya from here mate.
    Sad but glad bro, your'e Ok thats what really counts.
    CLean yer freakin driveway.
    Every day above ground is a good day!:

    You tag guys down there are too focused on the tags. One of you also got a speeding ticket on the way to or from a tag.

    The Wellington tag is proving to be costly.

    Fun but costly.

    Bad Luck man, really sorry to heat that.
    I have a Paranoia about Leaves that blow in to my garage for that exact same reason, just putting a foot down on one on top of the smooth concrete floor while manouvering the Bike in and out has nearly cost me on several occasions.
    Not Good.

    Poor Suzie- I have let her down- literally

    If it went down heavy on the right at least your muffler appears to have escaped injury??? Mine is so fat it's a given that it shows damage when my bike goes down on that side. ('Spensive to replace too...)

    Warning heeded. Must sweep drive way now!
    We have frikken camelias everywhere at our place and the flowerheads on those when they drop are a menace, even for walking! Good point about keeping driveway swept.

    My muffler survived by one sheer fluke- the double flanges used to adapt two brothers VTR thou pipes make a big industrial knuckle that kept her muffler off the tar- thank fuck (I still cant see HOW it did but it did)

    She nosedived super fast onto RH front edge- amazed the screens intact it was twisted under the weight!
    Just ride.

    Who was it that was saying most accidents happen close to home or something...

    least u weren't screaming down SH1 at 115kph. That's no consolation though when your trusty steed is all scraped up.
