Maybe the bung kept the bike clear enough to avoid the fairing/can getting scratched?
I don’t know much but I’d cautiously agree with @Jung - maybe the tyres weren’t warm enough, or maybe they just weren’t sticky enough.
Better a low side than a high. How’re the leathers?
First real battle scars ticked off the list. Now you can ride it without concern!
