Well after fitting my Puig Touring Screen and Touratech Adjustable windscreen mount I thought I would just take a quick ride out to see if I could get a good setting to reduce the buffeting issue I am experiencing (6'2 rider). I was enjoying some great country roads here in the Scottish Borders taking regular stops to make the minor adjustments on the screen position when I decided to do a quick u turn in the entrance to somebodies house so I could reuse a good piece of straight road to get up to speed.......when for some reason still unknown to me (I have spent a lifetime riding sports bikes so don't be to harsh) I thought I could do a feet up turn, but unfortunately too late I realised there was a positive camber to the entrance and alas before I knew it I was down on the floor :'(
Thankfully the OEM engine bars and Givi panniers meant there was minimal damage to my newly acquired bike (I have already repaired the said areas with light sanding and black plastic dye) BUT hey even after 37 years of riding it was a lesson learnt!!!! Being a 25 year veteran I still like to keep myself fit which I did appreciate when dead lifting the S10!!
Thankfully it wasn't on a crowded high street or busy road..... oooh the shame of it!
