Front end wash out
Yes I came off the Kwak 4 days after bought her :-( Front tyre washed out on the simplest of bends. Mixture of new bike, poor road surface, wrong suspension settings, missing chevrons (found in ditch) - awaiting letter from the highways about my claim.
Total damage was: front wheel, both lower fairings, nose cone, headlight, screen, forks, side and main stand and left footpeg assembly. I cam a way with a bruised shoulder.
Lesson to be learnt - learn your bike, set up your suspension, look out for Welsh corners. Good gear saves the bruises (see photo)
Stay safe

Mine was the O-ring where the chrome pipe comes off the water pump. I now smell coolant and suspect the O-rings up top. Either there or the hose between the thermostat and radiator. I'll have a look in the spring.
