Well, I just bought my bike (2004 Ninja 500 in silver). Since I don't have a license yet, I had it delivered to my house. When I rolled it into my garage, and tried to tuck it in sideways in the corner, I tilted it too much and...dropped it :lame on a pile of rags. Doing that I kept on holding it to slow it down and ended up doing a flip over it and flying over the rags and onto conrete floor of the garage (scraped/bruised knee and elbow). Nothing happed to the bike as I slowed it down enough and by dropping on rags.
So the celebrations is on buying a bike and having a first drop/injury. It kind of reminded me of my BMX bike times... hitting the gravel and flying off the bike, etc. Also, it proved to me one more time that I made a wise decision of buying all the gear before getting the bike :headbang
Well, now it will sit in the garage until I take my MSF course in the end of July.
