Who the fuck keeps crashing into air pumps?

[ital916]

WHERE?????

I would love one. I've yet to find a service station air pump that I can actually use. If I didn't have a compressor at home I'd be screwed.

Motomail can get you one, if you are lucky there will be one on the parts shelf, if not it will take only a day or two to come in and they costs around ten bucks.

Ugh, that really ticks me off. They must have been bloody drunk! I haven't done enough driving to become fully familiar with the placement of my four wheels but I haven't bloody well crashed into anything or even curbed it.

I hope the servo replaces your fave pump...shame on whoever crashed into it, hope they admitted to it and/or were caught on the security cam.

my god

get a hand pump you soft barstad

and I really hope your not using the servo pressure gauge, notoriously inacurate they are, not leeast because of all the abuse you mention

given the effect tyre pressures have on handling i like to have a known pressure to work with

hope your not negleating brown fury with these kind of mechanical errors

or even better, blow them up with your lung power, or.. if you are a real hardout, just glare at the surrounding air until it gets in your tyre, thats what chuck norris would do.

if i did that they would be full of hot air

how would that effect the performance of my tyres?

Probably be the same effect as a warm tyre wouldn't you think? That or the bike will float.

good call, might save me having to cart a generator to the racetrack for warmers then

A practical use for an impracticable method of tyre inflation. I like it! Just need to get some balloons for lung air dispersal exercises.

I go to my local Firestone shop. I know it is correct, well maintained. I rock on up check my own pressures and ride away. She big job mate.

Purchase a good dual cylinder foot pump , from all quality stores. Ten seconds mild exercise and tyres sorted. The pumps come with a built in gauge (accurate, by my observation)

Sod that. I bought a motorbike so I wouldn't have to do any exercise.

Then get your wife/girlfriend/boyfriend/signficant other/goat (as appropriate) to do the pumping. Sheesh, do I have to explain everything.

I was waiting at the Mobil in Parnell once to use the air, there was a chick in a convertible Audi fucking around with the hose, walking up and down and getting all...like.....stressed and stuff....

Getting the picture now....

Anyway, I'm sitting there being very patient. Finally got off the bike and walked over to see if I could assist but she shooed me away like a fucking rabid cat.

So, eventually she gets all ....whatever-like-and-stuff and thows a really girlie strop, chucks the hose on the ground, jumsp into the car and goes to drive off. As she does she pulls up alongside me and says:

"oh, take care of that for me, I'm..like..in a real hurry and stuff....." and then she fucks off.

Now there is one genre of cager I feel would be guilty of fucking up the iar hoses...

Coming back from the Cheesecutter ride I stopped at that Mobil. A blonde chick in a black Audi soft top pulled up to a pump and just stared as it for ages. When the attendant said over the loadspeaker you will have to come to the counter to pay she tried to reply by talking into the Eftpos slot on on the pump.

When I said to her that the Mobil guy wanted to help and she should see him she stormed off and sat in her car. On the passenger side. After about a minute she got out planted herself in the drivers seat and drove off with the petrol flap still open.

Maybe its the same chick?

Hmmmm, possibly, but I reckon this one was plain ignorant, your one seems to be, well, plain stoopid..!!
