Yes, I knew I should not let the bike on its side stand in a light slope without a gear engaged...
Why the hell did I do it anyway?
I just could watch the bike slowly passing upon the stand and falling on the low wall edge.
The external fairing shows a light scar:

But inside, it exploded the glove box...
![I knew... 20240412](https://i.servimg.com/u/f71/13/49/48/64/20240412.jpg)
And the upper slot to the fairing support is broken also.

Curiously, no other damage was made to the side panel, the mirror or the fairing comfort spoiler. Not even the indicator cracked.
Well. Anyway, I had to get the fairing resprayed, it had a dent in the front.
But i just had reattached it after changing the frame and the front light.
I'll change it for a K100LT fairing with side air scoops, to try to lower temperature under the tank.
Oh! And the scenary from there was worth it!
