Dropped for the first time
well....its finally happened. i finally put her down [X(] i was parked on a sidewalk in front of a bar that i was leaving from....and i was backing out to leave with the ramp right behind me. as i backed up i rolled into the ramp dipping downward (which i thought wouldn't have been a big deal....)turned the handles to pull out only to realize the car parked infront is too close and that i cant manoeuver by. i tried to back up the ramp which was a no go b/c the ramp was too steep. tried again to slowly to creep by the car....when..........down i went. right infront of the door like a jackass. not to mention putting a little nick on my fairing.
i guess it was bound to happen sooner or later....better that i wasn't moving i guess....
next time i should probably give myself a little more room to move.....or maybe i should have gotten off the bike to push it. lesson learned.

RE: Dropped for the first time
yeah....no crack. just a bruised pride. when the bike went down...i went down too (even though i really could have just stood up and not have fallen). just layed there (spread eagle) in the parking lot for a second thinking about what had just happened.
thanks everyone for the input...hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.
