If you gotta crash it...then 3mph is the best way to go. Sorry to hear about the scratches...mine got scratches...I ain't fixing them.

I've done it once. Pulled into a gas station in a hurry jumped off the bike, forgot to put the kick stand down like a retard. I caught the bike with my leg just as the left mirror hit the ground. Just a few scratches on it. Felt like a moron with ten people looking at me as Istod it back up.

It happens. Five minutes after pickin' up my '05 from the Dealer, I need fuel. I hit the curb at a wrong angle and it a whole in the ground. At about 5MPH, the right side went down - hard. Cosmetic damages and a hair line fracture on my right shoulder.

Like I said, it happens!

Sorry Havoc, glad to hear there is only minor damage. I don't know if you guysremember when my wife backed into me (while I was on the bike). Cost me about $1500...[:@]

Sorry to hear that. At least it was only minor damage and no one saw you do it.
