Them damned gateposts, they leap out at you when you least expect it.

Hope the damage is minimal and easily fixed LC.

all fixed, and surprisingly when it happened i was cool as a cucumber, cos theyre were people watching, and my main concern was calmly unwedging it , and pushing it in like nothing had happened lmao

Don't worry about it. I once got off mine and forgot to put the side stand down, very embarrassing.

Hah, it's nice to see others owning up to the classic disclock error. Took me about three days to do that with the Cat. I patched it all up with resin and a Union Jack sticker. Did it again about six months later (fortunately I got two stickers) and THEN decided I should get one of those reminder cables that runs to the bars.

Not done it since :-)

(I have discovered the corrosive properties of petrol but that's another
issue)
