This morning, while out riding, I scratched up my lower plastics. I was out just riding around on my normal morning route, came to a right hand curve which has a 20 Km/h(?) speed sign. I probably was going a faster than the 20 Km/h. When I took the turn, I heard something scraping - don't know what it was, but I remember someone saying that the center stand would scrape first if anything.
I looked to see what touched when I got home. Checked the center stand and no scrapes found. Then proceeded to check elsewhere. To my horror I scraped up the painted plastic in the front, below the right foot floor board where it starts to angle-up. It's only a small 1 inch square scrape.
It was quite startling to me that I scraped up the plastic there. I must have leaned it over too much or hit on some bump in the ground or something. At least no real damage was done - worst thing that could've happened would be I lowsided and scraped up the whole right-side of the burger.

, if I am speaking to an experienced rider.
