My first bike (Ninja 500) dropped like 8 times...in the parking lot...in the driveway...and once on gravel....dropped my 929 off the road (hit gravel and went off the road into a ditch) which was fixed by Honda (full insurance) and my Aprilia I lowsided last year....yes I drop every bike I own...never hurt though
