just heard a sickening crashing sound from the shed


ran out there and the TL (front wheel is off to get straightened) has tipped over!!!!

damage is minimal, but completely in line with my luck

the carbon front fender (which i had only just arranged to sell a guy in the states) is all scuffed on one side and cracked in the middle!!!!
the rigid pegs and moto-x bars seem to have saved the rest

but....
the bikes back tyre semi-crushed my shiny new x-static megatec front fender and cracked it!!!!!!!!


:(

Can I ask how you had it propped up? If you say house bricks then I will be most disappointed.

i had the rear wheel in the race-stand

its been nice and stable like that for a wheel, so fucked if i know why its decided to take a concrete nap????!?!!



could have been worse, if it didnt have such a stumpy tail it woulda taken the katana down with it...... [XX(]

Did any oil leak out of it when it was on it's side, or does it only leak when it's upright:D
