A stupid girl at work backed into my Moto Morini 3 1/2, smashed the rear light, two indicators, dinged the tank, scuffed a footrest, scraped the tacho bezel, squished the stainless steel tacho surround, bent the stainless steel tacho/speedo holder, etc.  Cost her over $500.00.  She doesn't park in that area anymore...

I didn't shout when she told me, I just went out & looked at the bike & kept saying (real soft like) "My poor baby...  look what you've done to my poor baby...".

However, if she'd hit my '78 CBX, I would've killed her!

My K5 when on the side stand is almost straight up, very slight lean.  You might consider using the center stand, it is much more stable.
