Project ZX750F1
previous day's entry March 14th, 2003 next day's entry
Really windy today, I can't paint the bike so I'll just keep sanding the fairings...

So I want to practice low speed manuvering, I stop and go. Back up a few times. Do some walking with the bike. Do a couple of tight a turns and then wham! I fall for the first time. I was doing a low speed u-turn while walking when all of a sudden my feet couldn't keep up with the speed of the bike, so then it falls on its side. I got a small burn from the muffler hitting my leg (I was wearing shorts for the first and time on the bike). Also I hear a crunch as it goes down. Damn I broke the front right side turn signal lense and the front brake lever.
Well come to find out my bike was equipped with an aftermarket turn signal. I went to a Kawasaki dealer and they showed me the stock one and it looks nothing like mine. I'll have to bring it in next time then hopefully I can get a new lense.
Here is the new brake lever, $20
