After pulling a monumental stoppie (to avoid slamming in to the car in front), I overbalanced and came down a bit sideways.
Didn't notice the damage for weeks, then was puzzled as to what had caused it.
Finally figured out that it was the foot on the end of the side stand.
Never thought that the bike would flex that much.
