Sorry to hear of this Luke. :(

I take it that's the centre stand that's cracked, and what caused the shit to happen.

Is this quite a common happening on older Fazers? Just would hate it to happen to mine.

I snapped mine in half. I put it down to riding through 9 winters - the corrosion got to it, so if you're the same, it might be worth checking.

Already had mine re-welded by one of the guys at work about 2 years ago, and now is going again on the other side :rolleyes I 'd taken it off so I wouldn't be tempted to use it until I get it done again, but I've had to put it back on cos the engine needs to come out again. 2001 Gen 1 so its had some pain ;)
Its better to ask a stupid question than make a stupid mistake.

Been there, done that, got the dent in the tank to prove it.
Be thankful it didn't split completely when you were rocking on. . . . . like it did to someone i know!

Unlucky, mate, but could have been worse - might 'ave been the Flying Banana. :)

Unlucky Luke. Still, at least you didn't drop your camera.  ;)
Personally, I'd have picked the bike up before even considering taking pics.

Sorry to see your bike on it's side and your scuffed shin. I'm about to order bits for my fazer after my little jaunt towards a hedge :'(
If it's broken, it's not fixed.
