Well, after 6000 miles it finally happened. I was coming back home from my evening ride and was already in the garage doing about 1-2 mph when all of a sudden I find myself sitting on the floor and the bike is next to me on its ride side. Had 0 seconds to react. What the hell happened? I got up and looked around. The garage floor is covered with sand. Apparently I just locked the front end when braking and fell over. The lighting in the garage is very dim so it was practically impossible to spot the sand, especially coming from bright weather outside. A young lady came to help me lift the bike up (how humiliating). Only cosmetic damage on the right-side fairing and mirror but I'm still pretty pissed. I heard that numeours complaints have been filed about the dirty garage floor. But I'm glad it was nothing more serious. I've been very careful on the road but this situation totally took me by surprise. Slippery concrete floor with sand on top is a very dangerous combination, I noticed.
I'm attending a track day tomorrow. If I go down, I do hope I drop her on the right side...
