    it was a stationary drop. Fell off sidestand with no help at all. I
    suspect he may not have fully extended the sidestand, and it was just
    balancing.

    A bit nasty when you lose a clutch lever and a gear lever in a simple
    exercise like falling off the sidestand. A couple of Mick's allen
    keys, judicious use of cable ties and a liberal application of The
    Force[1] seemed to do the trick.

    Oops, didn't Joe state emphatically that he wouldn't do any more live-demos
    for Underdog-Leathers?
    :)

    Rest's looking good :)

    Hehehehe I like the use of the allen key.
    Very inventive.

  5. Worked a treat too, only problem was the strength required to engage and
    disengage the clutch was a bit rough. Had to adapt and pull on it with a
    full fisted grip... made take offs at the lights a little interesting.

    Parts on order, planning to respray the fairing, only scratches, no damage.
    Then I might sit tight and wait for the fireblade prices to drop.
