OMG, I have the exact same scratch on my f4i. I got the exact same bike as you. I just put a sticker over it. I wanted to remove the graphic, but it will look weird cuz of the two tone...

ya, as 4 me laying mine down...it was when i least expected it. have done the wheelies; solo & double, the 160+ mph days, the pouring thunderstorms, the ridin 2 ft off ur buddies back tire through the sharpest, narrowest, most winding roads; and never wiped out......until.
i pulled into the local mall like i had hundreds of times b4. i'm guessing i was doing between 20 and 30 mph, all of a sudden i was being slammed down on my left side as the bike went sliding out from under me on it's left side. my baby slid 4 more than 10 ft; coming 2 rest against a curb. as i was laying on my side all i could think about was my bike. it was in slow motion like it was sliding on ice. busted arm and glass on left mirror, scratched front, side farings. scratched & cracked rear fairing, bent clutch lever, snapped bolt by passenger seat, bent toe shifter, scratched stator cover, scratched swingarm and silver bar ends. somehow my short stem turn signals survived this destruction. i was shocked at how much damage was done 4 such slow speeds. i was so upset that this happed because there wasn't a scratch on it b4. this was definitely a lesson 4 me though that anything can happen at any given time. It SUCKS knowing this.
