Sandy hurricane gusting winds were too strong and tipped over my RE to the ground. It fell on the right side. My neighbor saw it, immediately called me up and helped to pick it up. Then we pushed it to another place - with the hope that the winds may be a little less there.
It is raining and dark so don't know if there is any real damaged to bike. However, I am glad for one thing that did NOT happen - the gas did not leak out of tank. May be the tank is not full and it did not lay there for long time or double protection on my gas tank cap worked well or a combination of all three. I did notice that the engine crash bar on the right side was bent, it took the impact that very likely protected the bike from major damage.
The motorcycle cover got filled with a gust of wind, that lifted up the bike a bit to tip it over. I had put double cover on bike, one of which did not have holes at the top to let out air.
