Just spotted this photo on the ST owners listserve; makes my heart hurt:



Anybody we know? My condolences regardless...

God damn that would piss you off beyond words!!

ouchie    

Act of "god".  Looks like the wind may have picked up the rain cover on the first one and then dominos!!   

No bueno!

Hmmm..looks like there was actually one of every Duc on the domino list too.   

HypMo, Tricolor, Monster, ST, etc.   

Nope; you'll notice the unscarred Multistradas in the row behind...

We don't know what that one is on the far right though?!

or the one rear tire & righthand exhaust poking out from underneath the Hyper on the far left, for that matter. Since we can only see one pipe, let's just pray it was a Kawasaki that got parked in the wrong lot, hmmm?

oddly enough....every one of those bikes had a Frostys Finishes business card stuck inbetween the seat and tank.

WTF?!  I hope that they charge the b*stard!!

when I saw the thread title, I was hoping it wasn't something like this.  When I saw the picture, I cringed.  I actually cringed.

mehhh..it's only about 100K worth of damage.

I just hope a Desmo wasn't under that rain cover!!

Chill dude, thats not true, he was just messing with ya.

Amy and I heard about it, and walked over right after the GP race was red flagged early due to the weather, and unfortunately the man I was talking to as we were walking up just happened to own the 1098 tricolore you see down in the pics.

It was a pretty bad scene, but while the rain cover may have been part of the issue, the truth was the attendants had everyone line their bikes up facing the wrong direction.

If they would have turned the bikes around, they would have been much more stable, as that parking lot had a slant to it, and the bikes were pretty vertical.

So it didn't take much of a gust of wind to do the trick.
