Very steep drive on odd angle, little space, turning right and stalled it, dropped my 1050 St on my pointed foot, only a scrapped fairing that will be repainted but it crushed my foot! Agony tonight and pi$$ed off

Easily done mate, really annoying but don't beat yourself up about it :) hope the foot is ok!
Been there, done that :(
^^^ ain't that the truth^^^
All done it, i dropped my R6 onto my Mrs yzfr125................ was not a pretty sight, fat bloke squashed between 2 bikes lol
Yep, you are not alone ;)
My drive is the worst type (according my instructor)
Two differing directions of lean and extremely steep.
Yep - I've done it on mine too (Only once though)
Hope your foot heals soon !
Me too! Not a question of if, but a question of when you find yourself in that horrible moment when you just have to put it down!
Back in 1980 I rode up to my garden gate on my GS1000 and as I stopped and went to put my foot down the "flared" jean bottom caught on the footrest.
Over I went
At the isle of man in 2013 we called in at a motorcycle dealer and on leaving my mate stalled his speed triple on turning around to leave.
Bike went over and catapulted him off in front of about 100 people - now that's embarrassing (even though we have all done it)
