As I couldn't afford fully comp insurance, I paid a bit extra for front and rear R&G Crash Bobbins. Hoping they'll protect my a bike a little bit if it has a tumble. :)

We have all done it bud just laugh it off :wink: I did it on some grass going into a rally some rather attractive girl collecting at the gate, so me trying to impress one foot still on the extended pegs one hand in my pocket getting some change. The other boot decided to slide on the grass hahahahah down I went like a pack of cards lol I was totally stuck under the bike hahahah the weight of the bike pushed my boot into the mud hahahah took three guys to lift the bike up :oops: All i got was a bent pride :wink:

A police man I know stopped when he saw a guy fall off his bike at some lights thinking he might have been drunk. Asked the chap if he was OK the very embarrassed guy answered this morning this bike used to have a sidecar hahahahaha.

Did it the other day, late for work, took it off center stand, keeping the side stand down to land it on, instead it landed on my boot toe which rolled the stand back so when it landed it just kept on rolling and fell over, in the garage, onto a bunch of boxes and a folded pram. Nice one I thought. Till I picked it up and found the front brake lever snapped off :x Fifteen quid down the drain :oops: .

Yep, happens to us all :D !
