in a hurry, w.o put down side stand, I drop my bike on its left side. Now it has visible engine rashes. Myteriously, the right side engine cover has some light scratches, it must be someone does it (not me)

on left side, the rash penetrate the paint and show some metal.
on the right, just superficial scratches.

How to I fix it to make it looks news?

thx
One of the forum members recently did such a repair and it looked like new. I'd do a search.
That's what I would do.

Ashtray full? Time to buy a new Cadillac. Smile
