Yesterday, as I was putting my ST on the center stand, I managed to lose my grip on the lift handle. She rolled forward and dove to the right. I had to call a friend to help lift her back up as the ground was lower where I was standing (and the gas tank was full) Damage? Broken mirror, scuffed plastic over the tip over bar and a small dent in the muffler. I do have a question though: is there any chance oil or gas would have somewhere they shouldn't ? She was on the ground about 30 min, slowly leaking gas from the overflow hose..

No, there may be some gas that got in the charcoal canister but that should be about it and that should evaporate.. Glad YOU weren't hurt in the incident.

Dang! Sorry to hear you couldn't keep it up! :eek:4:

Just know that, here, you are not alone, there are many on this forum that have dropped their bikes!
