So yesterday I'm coming home and slowing down as I'm turning into my driveway. All of a sudden my front wheel slides out and I end up on the ground. The culprit? No, not oil or anything like that, but a piece of thin plastic, same color as the road, that someone left in the street. It looks like I rolled over it as I was braking and turning, at maybe jogging speed, and lost the front. In the second photo you can see how the plastic got scraped on the underside. Probably one of the weirdest things that happened in my 18+ years of riding motorcycles.
The good thing is that I was riding my DRZ instead of my Multi, so no discernible damage to the bike. Normally I would be on the Multistrada, but it's at Super Plush getting new fork seals. And I was coming from work, so I was wearing my full getup, with big moto boots and Aerostich, so no discernible damage to me either.
