...she took the KT, and left me the Buell to ride....(Blues Brothers)
I've been trying to figure out why my 888 had stopped working as it said it should in the original brochures when it stopped on me again half-way around the Devil's Staircase.
I was about 35km from home with no cellphone.
I managed to bump start it and get another couple of ks closer to home before it stopped again.
I must have pushed it for at least a km in total before some kind bloke & chick stopped to give me lift.
It was about 26 deg and I'm pushing a 200kg bike in black leathers but there was nowhere I could park the bike hidden from the road so that I could get a lift .
But the part that's relevant to this thread is that, if I couldn't find a place out of view to hide the bike, neither could I have found a discreet location to urinate.
It was just lucky that I had had a pee before I came out.
A very valuable lesson learnt.................

I guess you could have vented your anger and peed on the 888.![]()
But I was peeless;Originally Posted by Bonez
I was without pee;
Bereft of a drop or a dribble of uric waste I had drained and shaken;
I couldn't squeeze out the merest drip, drop or seep;
The thought of a globule was in the realms of fantasy;
No smidgin, speck or scintilla;
No modicum, mote or molecule;
The only way that I could have peed on the bike would have been to take a trip to the frozen foods section of the nearest supermarket;
No desire was there;
No bladder activity was possible;
*sigh* I had gone before I came!!!!

Lol Must have been quite fustrating then when the 888 misbehavedOriginally Posted by idb

Have you found the cause of said stoppage?
The 888 I mean.
The battery isn't charging and I found last night that there are several connections between the alternator, regulator and battery that are fried.Originally Posted by Bonez
Apparently they have a habit of doing this because the alternator is only single phase and the wires are a bit too small.
I think I'll just remove the connectors and solder the leads straight through.
Piss on it!

The cold weather has made this a relevant topic for revival.
More than ever it's important to plan your trip.
No matter how many times you may have made a journey during summer knowing that you can comfortably get to your destination without requiring a stop, the cold weather means that this may no longer be the case.
I have found that a 5 degree reduction in temperature corresponds to an approximate 15 minute reduction in storage time. One should take this into account when planning your journey - such as delaying your final visit to the smallest room prior to mounting your bike.
You wouldn't want an accident on the journey now.....please people be careful out there!!!!!!!!!

Those people with an older house that has the toilet outside, just off the porch, should park their bike next to the porch, suit up, go to the toilet and take a running leap at the bike...Originally Posted by idb
