Bike blown over in high winds today - ajhutchinson - 25-01-14

Today in the high winds my bike a Gen1was blown over. Damage to the bike, 1 bar end, Clutch cover cracked (swing slight oil leak) and possible bent bars, all on the right side. Lucky no damage to fairing or tank.  Could have been worse. If anyone has any of these damaged parts that they wish to sell, please either PM me or call 07717312020.

I always worry about the high winds as I keep mine outside under a cover. Only takes one strong gust to get under your gusset & off you go!
I often keep mine on the center stand as well - can never decide whether this is more stable than the side stand? :think
