Cheers. it took me about 2 months to sort it including a full engine rebuild, gsxr 600 K7 rear shock and a fork rebuild... ONLY to find it in my shed lay on its side ( paddock stand collapsed)... TOTALLY GUTTED!!!!!! :smt010

DAMN! shocking

Id be mortified if that happened to me, especially as the stand collapsed! Good bit of work i must say! Well done.

aargh thats toad luck!! Must have been hard to pick up without a back wheel on it? Doesn't seem to even be much room to stand down the side of it!!

I couldn't believe how much damage was done. It bent the fairing and headlight bracket, smashed the nose, side fairing and screen and squashed on of the hoover pipes. I didn't do that much damage when i came off my TL1000r at Cadwell Park. :smt009
