    I'm sure a lot of us have let their TR's take a nap. Any photo's? Damage reports?
    Here's my first nap after installing PPE , no damage just a scuff on the barkbusters.

    Mine has had two soft landings, but no pics to show. So technically since there were no pics, it never happened.

    I don"t understand why you just don't use the side stand. :thinking:

    I dropped mine the day I brought it home. Rolled it into the garage and promptly forgot to put the side stand down and tried to walk away. Well, you know the rest. Not my most shining moment.

    mine hit the ground day one at the dealership. as soon as I paid and they handed me the keys I promptly sweep kicked the sidestand and stood back. You should have seen the peoples faces at the dealership absolutely priceless.

    Did you change the tyres before you took the photo? Not a speck of red dust on them !

    THe only time mine has had a nap was in the middle of this puddle. I picked it up and rode it out before I snapped it though. It didn't fall right over. THe footpeg embedded in the mud on the side of the rut and held the bike up 45 degrees or so.

    Mine has had a few naps. Some in the mud and a few in the rock. The SWmotech bars have been great and the TCI rear rack is tough as well. The rack is a bit bent but has saved the cans and taillights I'm sure.
