Fuck

Who knew a gust of wind could be so expensive? It is when it blows your bike over... Bent brake lever, smashed throttle and switchgear, mushed handgrip, scratched muffler.

Thank god it doesnt have fairings. Now I just get to go shopping for new switchgear. Grrr.

Owww....

So sorry to hear about this, O Growly One. Aside from the money, I hope the damage is fairly easy to fix.

AKKK! damned wind!

Sorry about the tip-over. Were you on a slope, or was it just a hellacious gust? I don't suppose there's any way to shorten your sidestand short of shoving it into the asphalt.

Ouch!Bad luck!
Yours is such a pretty bike too.
Mine on the other hand looks more and more like a tin can ratbike every day.
