At 17, I got a sweet CX650 Custom... water cooled and shaft driven. Dropped it before even getting out of the driveway on my first ride. Very proud.

 

At least you dropped it in your driveway instead of in the parking lot at work in front of a bunch of people.

Not that I've ever done anything like that. I'm just saying...you know..
It MIGHT suck if SOMEONE were to drop a brand new bike in the parking lot at work, in front of a bunch of people, they day after he (or she) bought it.
