| Well, I now add my name to the list of those of us that have dropped our Silver Wings!  Parking sideways on a slope it simply fell sideways as I was alighting with the side stand down. Gravity won the battle and over it went. The upper part of the Givi screen detached, no damage. Deep scratches and scrapes to the left side plastic.  Took a moment to collect thoughts and raised the 'Wing' legs apart, back straight and hey ho up it came. Re-positioned bike to a flatter part of the car park and chalked it down to experience. It was the end of a long night shift and I was going in for my first appointment for treatment for my PTSD so much on my mind pulling into the car park. Just goes to show you need your wits about you even doing the simplest of things. |
