So, I knew it would happen sooner or later. Just didn't think my buddy would be the one to lay my 6'er down. 1st off he's completely ok, besides a bruised ego. He finally took my bike for a spin while I was teaching my GF to change the oil and front stabilizer on the Wrangler. When I heard him panting, I asked how it went and he told me he dropped it. I told him its not a big deal, as long as it didn't deter him from riding. He was practicing his turns and when he was coming out of a U-turn, hit the accelerator and got a wobble. Luckily, he really didn't do any damage other than a scuffed right fairing. He said he layed it down on dirt rather than the street which is great. I'll post pictures later, the bike was due for a 14/16k service anyways. He at least wants to buy me a set of frame sliders to make up for it.
So, what's your take on lending your bike to (Good) friends? Do you still lend them, or are you all "hell no, not my baby!". My buddy was practicing because he's interested in the Honda 500.
