Southerners - its gonna be windy!
#1



[color=rgb(51, 51, 51)][/color]
[color=rgb(51, 51, 51)]Tonight if your bike lives outside it will be blown over and tomorrow you will be crying and facing a hefty bill. Today is the day to make friends with someone who has a garage and beg or bribe him to take your pride and joy in for the night (or put it in the living room when the other half goes to bed.)[/color]

If u cant leave in a garage i would suggest parking it next to a wall with the side stand nearest the wall and also leave it in gear.

Exupnut - ah the old centre stand or side stand discussion. I've always thought it was more stable on the centre stand. One thing I would add - if you have to leave it out is to take off the sail / cover.

No need, just recovered mine from the paddock at the riding stables next door.  Wind had already removed the cover for me......

lol, absolutely... although i will be pretty upset if anything does happen to the blade, i did consider bringing the Fazer into the house and bunging the blade in the garage but it would have meant the Fazer being in the conservatory which is a bit dodgy with the trees, wasnt prepared to take the risk :rolleyes
