As some have posted, I may have done more damage and worsened the scratches just trying to pick it up on the sloping driveway.

Huh?  ???

So did you fall left and the bike fall right...or...did you fall left and when you struggled to pick it up it then over centered and kept going to the other side and then broke off the brake pedal?
In the end it doesn't matter, the same result, but since you gave all the details...I was trying to picture it and couldn't.

I too have a fairly good slope to my driveway and some close calls. I purchased tip over protection fairly quickly and then started dropping my poor girl every where it seems. I haven't dropped her in the driveway yet because I purchased a Park-N-Move and turn her around in the garage before I leave.

I hadn't had the Nomad long when a couple friends & I went on a 3 day road trip. I was all excited about the ride as I pulled up next to them at the meeting spot. Shut the engine off, swung a leg over and down she went. It took about 5 minutes for them to stop laughing enough to help me lift it back up....

VirginiaJim:
As they should have... ;)
