Dropped once
I dropped her the first day I rode her. It was on a gravel road and I pulled over to turn her around. When I took off, I let the clutch out too fast, hit the far edge of the road and lay her half-way in the ditch. Left some really ugly scratches and broke the mirror. I broke the clutch lever using all my muscle to lift this heavy thing out of the ditch. Had to push it a lil over a mile on a nice warm day... Anyway, learning to use the clutch properly was the most important thing for me. I ride her 2 hours per day now (work and back) and haven't gotten killed so, considering how people drive, I must be doing ok.
