Got the bike out of the garage this morning for a wash, put it on paddock stand and found left side bobbin hanging off. I was lucky, worth checking RTTL's. 👊🏻

I use thread lock on mine for that very reason, never happened to myself but over the years it’s happened to mates and their bikes have fell over or they’ve lost them whilst out and about.
