It is so easy to have them go over, especially if the ground is not flat.
Had a mate with a Benelli Tornado and one night he was trying to get it up on some type of paddock stand and it coped over 8O , It cost him a fortune to fix. On my storm I had a grab rail that helped a lot but the SP is a two man job (not brave enough to try on my own yet :) .

Cheers

How gutting Ian after all the work that has gone into your new paint job, hopefully it's not too bad and your painter can sort it without too much hassle.
