He had it up on a bench and he was kicking it through a few times, I don't remember why and it started to go over from about 3 feet off the ground. I got my shoulder under it and held on to the bench until he could get untangled from the bike and get down to help. That thing was heavy.
Did anyone damage their muffs or pipes in these tip overs?

I had a relatively low speed laydown last summer (assisted by a deer). The design of the Over Racing engine guards really impressed me. The bike went down on its left side, but nothing to the rear of the handlebars got so much as a scratch (i.e. pegs, turn signals). I just got scratches on the headlight ring, mirror and gauges (and of course, the engine guards).
