Fugg! Has it damaged the tank? Or can you get away with just re-painting it?

[Oobyscoot]

Yep, Done the same thing.

Only I done it with the bonnet of me pick-up. Bloody big crash at 2am.

It stayed on the floor untill the next day and went on the motor as it was, new dent and all.

[chazz]

just looked at it now ive calmed down an no dents just scrapes so a liight rub down an hopefully itll be alright :rolleyes:

Unlucky, still doesn't sound too bad!

Closest thing I ever did like that was when I had the lowers of my old 750 slabside painted and they glassed over the front lower bolt down by the v-piece.
I thought it's only one bolt, that won't matter. :rolleyes:

First time I hit 90 on the motorway both freshly painted lowers ripped off and took off left/right. :D
