Well, I guess it was inevitable

[The Bacon Junkie]

I dropped my brand new (to me) 999 in the garage while checking the tire pressure. 

I was on the right side of the bike checking the front.  I turned the bars to the right to get a better angle on it.  It must have moved forward just enough the the kickstand retracted.  I heard a *click* and the bike sloooooowwwwwly started tipping over.  I grabbed the right clip-on and the frame, but I couldn't keep her up.  She landed on my roomie's brand spankin' new 696.

Luckily her frame slider and passenger peg caught my bike, no damage to hers, but a broken DP mirror with integrated signals and two less-than-an-inch scratches on mine.

As it's been said. It happens to all of us. Shit happens.

I got catapulted through my yard by the GS1150ES (weighed around 570lbs) when my footing slipped in the driveway.

Could have been a real Kodak moment...
