My FZ6 hasn't hit the ground (knock on wood) but my previous bikes? That's another story...

Glad you're ok - the monkeys off your back - I understand what you mean.Layed mine down today for the first time I was turning left after a stop sign, and I guess i hit some loose gravel and it slid for about 10-15 feet. Scraped the left mirror, front turn signal, and crankshaft cover. Also bent the handle bars. The frustrating part is I was just about to put frame sliders on. Does anyone have any advice on handle bar replacement? Are there any good aftermarket handle bars? Anyway.. I got back up, picked up the bike with a rush of adrenaline, put it in neutral and let it stand on the kickstand a minute, started it up and rode it home.. slowly hah. Oh yea, it happened about 50 feet from my driveway. If you ride motorcycles, its not a question of whether or not you will crash, its a question of WHEN it will happen! In a strange sense, Im glad that it finally happened.
Unfortunately yes.
Wheeling it out of my garage, lent over it and I passed the tipping point and I tried in vain to keep it upright but could not. It was a very slow and soft fall. If that makes sense?
And all I can say "Crash bungs worth every penny" no damage done. :thumbup:
Just curious how many members have ever had their bike touch the ground. Flop and drops, knocked down, tipped over, etc, or even worse, suffered a crash since you have owned it?
Nope. Not JUST once. DOZENS OF TIMES.
