For Fucks Sake! Fourth fucking bin! Give me a break!

[ital916]

FFS! Just got the fucking indicators and headlights fixed today. Was riding home slowly since it was raining. Turned into ladies mile road and halfway through the corner rode through a nice big puddle of diesel! And i'm talking puddle! Good bye traction hello lowside. Took four guys to pick my bike up without sliding and falling over in the diesel! There goes my helmet, big hole in jacket and nice big fucking sore lump on my leg. Fucking hell how bad luck can a guy get, for fucking sake the biker gods could give me a bit of fucking leniancy! You know i wear the god damn high vis vest i have all the gear and i fucking ride safe! Go ahead i'm awaiting the insults and your a fucking idiot replies. This ain't gonna stop me from riding though. Damage is well nothing really the bike was already munted. Indicators work and so do the headlights, front brake lever now looks like a flowery garden ornament nice and curled.As well just before in the store, turns out that the bulbs the previous owner put in were too high or something melted and fucked the headlight unit!!! so one light works and the unit needs to be replaced. Sigh....i feel so down. So down. Well anyway call me what you want but i'm not a bad rider, but i must have pissed some biker god off in my past life.

Bloody diesel eh, gets a few of us alright. Chin up mate, it sounds like you have just had your next 30 years worth... It can only get better.

[Number One]

Stink one man..sorry to hear that. And if anyone has the gumption to give you shit on here they can go get effed....I'm sure you are feeling shite enough and don't need any crap from knobs who make out like they have never had a run of bad luck. Keep your chin up mate and remember it is just your FIRST bike so you can crash it heaps and keep learning you'll be awesome in no time

Sounds like you had your fair share of 'breaks' dude.

I like your attitude bro - don't give up.

I would consider buying a motard style bike though. They take the knocks really well.

As for traction, well, Limbimtimwim is constantly riding through puddles, gravel, wet painted lines etc just for kicks on his DR400SM (sado masochist)

+1. Mate your having a rough run, but you obviously have "The Passion", so things will work out.
Actually that strong drive you have can be found in successful racers also. You could go far....

Good on ya for getting back on the horse, fuck all you can do if you hit a diesel patch that shits worse than ice.

[Matt_TG]

It's good to vent, and you have deserved the right to do it! Talk about bad luck, hope you stop feeling sore, soon.

[limbimtimwim]

Insults?

NO!

You deserve mad props!

[janno]

Jeez, wouldn't all our lives be so much easier if they put flourescent pink dye in diesel?! Bastard stuff!!

Sometimes people stuff up, sometimes it's just being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
I don't know how you could have avoided that one, glad your not giving up.

[bell]

This ain't gonna stop me from riding though.

Hey, that's what I was going to say. Cheers for the timely reminder that hydrocarbons can get any of us, anywhere, anytime....sounds like a speed camera ad.

(Mental note to self: watch out for HWP on the Buller Gorge tomorrow.)

Keep ya head up mate, bins happen to the best of us, best you can do is try and learn from them.

[Monsterbishi]

It's the worlds way of telling you that a 150cc 2 stroke is not the bike for you, buy a RGV250 and all your problems will go away!

[HTFU]

Go ahead i'm awaiting the insults and your a fucking idiot replies. This ain't gonna stop me from riding though.

Since you are expecting it.......and everyones being so PC Touchy Feely

"Does your girlfriend ride ?"

[fireliv]

Bugger me that sucks!!!
Oh well, I guess you just have to get back in the hot seat, cos this bad runs gotta end some time!

[Dafe]

Gutted dude, Sorry to hear.

I know alot of bikers on here will only ride when they're virtually guaranteed that rain is not going to strike. I'm one of them.
Dry riding is the only riding I enjoy.
