I dropped her today, going maybe 4mph making a uturn at my work. forgot to clock out on the way home, u-turned right before the traintracks but on a gravel hill. gravel hills are very hard to u turn on apparently. i fell with the bike doing everything i could to prevent damage and let it land on my leg. ended up with a scraped knee, hurt pride, and easily fixable damage. luckily no cracks

all the damage is in this picture, my rearsets, exhaust, and levers all made it out okay.

and here is the pain and agony i am suffering from after the fall.

i've already touched up all the spots with white bmw touch up paint lol(similar white but no flake in it). you can't find the damage anymore. told my roommate i dropped it and he didnt believe me because he couldnt find any damage on the fairing till i showed him where lol

 

[wetwork999]

It's just a little bit f****d up that we'd rather damage ourselves than our bikes

 

[phrenetiK]

nah scraped knee/leg heals with no effort or money

 

[KrispyKreme]

you made it out lucky... all i can see is like a little chip in the paint, thank goodness for body parts to help cushion the fall for the bike....

I blame your work for still using clock punching.

Seriously though, I'm glad you aren't more hurt, and I think I'd do the same with sacrificing my body on a zero-low speed fall. Hope you recover quick!

dude, what kind of paint. I want some.. I am in houston too. I have some scratches that need help.

 

[icon1k]

ouch sorry that happened
hope all is well with the repairs

Glad you are OK!

Now you owe one hour of full lock turn circles in a quiet parking lot. Feet up, brake drag, clutch slip and near zero MPH. Eyes looking where you want to go!

Do figure 8s at full steering lock when you get it perfectly.

Na-na-na! Get back there! Do it in both directions!

The only limits are what you believe you can do.

 

[sqrimp]

sucks man, saw your updates on facebook and was wondering whats up

 

[old_rider]

I agree, it sucks...but glad to hear you only scraped up yer knee, coulda been worse. Nice to hear it didn't mess up your ride too badly either.
I dread the day I drop mine, ya know its gonna happen, always does, you just don't know how or when.

 

[This Girl Rides]

Glad ya came out as good as ya did,
Scraped knee and pride will heal.

My pride is what was hurt the most on my fall as well,
oh well- you live and you learn

Stay away from that hill
