Let your brand new tires break in before leaning at all on them in cold weather!! (yes I dropped my bike)
Post Body
Turning out of the motorcycle shop on a crisp 35°F fall day on my R6 with a brand new set of RoadSport 2s, and I immediately dumped my bike. Do not be like me.
I was turning more conservatively than I normally do with my lean angle and throttle but it wasn't enough, you damn near need to just keep the bike at 0° for at least the first ride.
Bike and me are both fine other than a scratched up fairing but wanted to warn others so they don't make the same mistake
