Hate to say it (embarrassed is more like it) but I rolled mine yesterday evening.
Just finished a 1-1/2 hr ride through the Lincoln hills of So. IN and pulled up to park the CB under one of my a large shade trees. Hit a patch of damp clover when I applied the front brake and was over on my side before I even knew what happened. Cracked the plastic speedometer housing but other than that the bike looks OK. Literally "slid into home" I guess.
This is the second time I've locked up the front tire, I wish now I would have gone for the anti-lock version. BTW - I don't think the back brake is worth a darn!
