Tauranga Rant and Rave

[DingDong]

Oddly enough, someone loosened my lefthand mirror while I was in the pub tonight.

Hope it was one of you guys otherwise I'm gonna be very pissed off.

It wouldnt have been any of us... and if it was... they wouldnt have me for a friend.
I dont believe any biker would mess with another bikers ride... run it down or make fun of it maybe but not mess with it... probly just a cruiser thing... falling to bits on ya

<<<<<<<< The V-max?

Nah... not yet , Virago

Things like this I don't mind when it's a mate. I trust them not to do anything damaging to the bike. Bit like Mark and Olivia writing fag in the frost on someones windscreen (hahahaha) but if it was just some pleb on the street, makes me a bit nervouse about other things they may have loosend.

Well I knoiw what I'll be doing today since my 'second job' thing kinda fucked up this morning. Was there for an hour and nobody was willing to tell me where I needed to be or what I needed to be doing, so I just came home.

Unless it's a vmax where pissing in the tank or taking a dump on the seat is totally acceptable.

But seriously, I fully agree with you, and it wouldn't have been any of us..... next it'll be the headers

Hard to piss in the tank when you don't have the key... and even if you go in the tray around the cap, it just drains out beneath the bike.

As for the other thing, I'm gonna start carrying rubber gloves with me. Gonna be fun when you show up at work one day with your own feces spread on the windshield of your ute. lol

Nothing else loose just the mirror. Others that were there may want to check their bikes aswell just incase mine wasn't the only one messed with.

[Ralph]

Well at least you didn't find anything else loose, after all it could have just been the vibs of the bike, or maybe someone did give it a yank, who knows. I know most people with bike's wouldn't do anything malicious to another bikers ride, it's just not cricket.
I go over mine from time to time and check for loose bolts.

Its a "must do" on a twin... found quite a few loose bolts, clutch and break leavers, horn, tail light... pretty much anything that hasn't got a rubber washer needs to be checked... prolly why the Virago fell apart too

[wybmadiity]

whats everyone up to for bathurst?

[DingDong]

whats everyone up to for bathurst?

I never watch the whole thing... first hour then check back every 15 minutes for highlights... so I'll be doing things around home all day.

[Waylander]

whats everyone up to for bathurst?

Sleeping through most of it I gather. Or since the sun is up I might go do stuff to the bike.

Decided I can't handle that part time job. On the way there this morning a laps in concentration from getting up early every day saw me turn down the wrong way like I was back in the states on Cameron Rd and almost get run over by a car.

[Ralph]

I got work so I'll be watching it aaaaaaaalllllllllllll day, got to have prioties right.

[NUTBAR]

Had the same problem on the m50 boulivard,
mirror went loose had to tighten it up twice.
i thought it was someone messing with my bike to.
but after it happend the 2nd time i made some enquires & it is a common problem with the vibration you get with vtns v4s etc.

[one-speed]

well waylander also went for a ride and my mates mirror on his harley flew off at 140kms,but ya get that while riding something like that.
so you may have to get used to it.
