Ducati Nightmare!!!

[Blakamin]

NO... not what you were all thinking

Had a nightmare in the 1 hour of sleep this morning... there was an earthquake and my "Ducati Suicide Stand™" flicked up and my bike was on its side
Has anyone ever thought of this?
any remedies besides cutting the top off the bolt? (Ducati Suicide Stand™ owners will know what I'm on about)

Help....

gotta stop getting emails from GeoNet


oooh.. had another dream... pleece was pulling over every sportbike in the country (at some twisties near taupo, where coincedentally, I arrived back from at 5.30am) and they said my front tyre had a wobble... so they bought me a new pirelli (better than the one on it) and had it delivered and fitted on the side of the road (hallets bay i think).... WTF????
I also invented a new bike, never seen before. 2 of them were pulled over in my dream, but the owners were done tho coz they was pissed (they put the bikes on their stands and proceeded to fall asleep. On the road!) I took photos, but my DreamCamera™ didnt work when I woke up methinks I might have to give up redbull and V and get some real sleep!

Riiiiight!! Time for some little blue pills methinks! Altho in saying that, mine have been a bit bizarre in the last few days - are we having a full moon?

When you breathe, it goes in-out, in-out.

Think gentle thoughts of rolling pasture.

I think maybe you have been smelling the fumes of that new bike of yours for a bit too long :spudwhat: Or is it just having a new bike overexcited you and you still havent recovered ?

Since I'm an obsessive compulsive worry pot, yes, I had thought of the earthquake topple. I reckon the only sure way is to leave your bike on it's side when you put it away. Either that, or leave it on both paddock stands, but it's a hassle to get out. Well, now that I think of it, it's more a case of being a hassle when you put it away.

I got an invite to go out last night, at about 8:30pm. I was in Stokes Valley. So, I drove back home to wgtn cbd, got dressed, drove out to Paraparaumu, stayed out till 3:30, drove back home, and surfed a little net. Finally got to bed at 05:50 Sat morning. Oh yeah, had to wake up at 07:50 for a physio appointment. I am going back to bed after someone comes round to pick up that stuff in my other thread.

zzzzzzz

Found a dream book in my collection, so thought I'd try to analyse your dream. There's no charge for this one!!

Had a nightmare in the 1 hour of sleep this morning... there was an earthquake and my "Ducati Suicide Stand™" flicked up and my bike was on its side

Dreaming of falling indicates struggles that will culminate in eventual victories.

pleece was pulling over every sportbike in the country

Police - you will succeed in overcoming rivals, so long as the police do not arrest you. If they do, beware of danger around you.

Bicycle (closest I could come up with for motorbike) - You will soon be facing an important decision. If you ride it downhill, beware of scandals and ill health. If uphill you will soon be facing bright prospects.

they said my front tyre had a wobble.

Couldn't find anything for tyre or wheel (what a crap book, eh?) so went for circle instead - You will accomplish much less than you expect in your business or profession.

so they bought me a new pirelli (better than the one on it) and had it delivered and fitted on the side of the road

Prize (no gift or present listed in the book) - have faith in yourself, for you will overcome all difficulties.

And I know this was not in your dream, but I will add it because of all the many common things they don't have listed, for some reason they do have prunes listed (go figure) - which means you will face many difficulties in your life. I assume they mean the screaming shits???

I also invented a new bike, never seen before

.
Sorry nothing for invention - I'll let the rest of the KBrs think up an explanation for this.

2 of them were pulled over in my dream, but the owners were done tho coz they was pissed

.
Drunk - financial difficulties and lack of self control.

(they put the bikes on their stands and proceeded to fall asleep. On the road!)

.
If the sleeping place is not nice, you will soon face sickness and broken engagements. However if you feel the road is a great place to sleep then it indicates peace and favours from those you love.

I took photos, but my DreamCamera™ didnt work when I woke up

To take pictures with one foretells disappointments in a close friend. I assume that because it didn't work it cancels itself out?

So there you go, lots of cheery stuff going on in your psyche!!!

Anyone got any of those little blue pills?

I also have a dream analysis, analysis book

Found a dream book in my collection, so thought I'd try to analyse your dream. There's no charge for this one!!

According to MY book, it says you have a lot of free time on your hands. It suggests a possible reason is that you have been bitten by the KB website bug. It goes on to say that people with such a disposition, are usually slightly crazy, introverted (extroverted with alcohol, or in groups with other KB'ers) and have little life outside of the website. It concludes that trying to fight this reality will leave you feeling lost, with a sense of something missing, knowing that really, what you SHOULD be doing, is sitting on the net earlyish on a sat morning, analysing the dreams of other KB'ers from the night before.

WELCOME to the club :eyepoke:

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Is there any hope for me? Actually I'm procrastinating big time at the moment. What I'm supposed to be doing is studying for an exam on Tuesday and finishing off my case studies, but this is so much more fun!

I don't like it when your mates come up to you and say " I had a dream that you crashed your bike"...


What the?????

[Blakamin]

BTW... i'm serious about the Ducati Suicide Stand™ bit... they flick up the moment there is no weight on them.... I really need to know if someone has a remedy... or if its happened?

Changing the angle of the spring would fix it, wouldn't it?
