Default my bike... BLEW OVER

Ok this is what happened. My friends bike is a R6. He has a full cover he keeps on his bike. We once came home and saw his bike had blown over. I think it was from this cover he put on his bike.

Anyway, last Friday I had my bike parked right behind his. And we came home and both the bikes were on the ground. I figured they had both just blown over, but now I think his bike fell into mine.


Has anyone ever heard of this before?

you ever consider that maybe you friend has some enemies? I can't see how a bike could get blown over unless he parks the bike on a very steepdownhill slope

That sux. Has his bike been lowered at all? If it has, he needs to saw down the kickstand, or the bike will stand more upright than it normally should.

are you definately turning the wheel towards the kickstand side and not just leaving it straight????
Otherwise I agree with the others and thinking foul play
