Stay away from my BIKE! The week of Hell

**Ramius** · 28th November 2004, 10:30

As per previous posts, have a gander of this one, I have a new philosophy after this.

Last sunday, some prick pushed my bike over. I replaced the Mirror and Brake lever as I was waiting for other parts.

Friday some jerk dropped his bike on to mine, which pushed it over damaging the entire right side of my bike. Someone picked it up, didn't put it on the kickstand properly and the wind pushed it over.

Today, the guy who brought my Kawasaki came to pick it up, took my Suzuki for a ride....and....CRASHED IT!

There was no new damage to any parts that were not damaged before, which I am thankful for!

Funny thing is, not once have I been near the bike when it has gone down!

My philosophy now is, STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM MY BIKE! When I get it repaired, it is going into a glass cage never to come out again!

I suppose it could be worse, I could be dead. Oh, my wallet is feeling the pinch!

Get a priest to exorcise the bike. Something aint right

I'd be selling the bike and buying somethig else if I was you. Sounds like your bike suffers from Narcalepsy(sp?).

I'm telling you man!
It's those blue 2004 GSX250's!

I mean... I crashed mine twice

but one of the crashes was a cage avoidance thing and I've had it backed into and pushed over.

Thats what you get for getting on the wrong side of Zed in the RR thread :P

LOL. Kidding.

See, I would not rant so much if I was the one that caused the damage, but considering that not once have I been near it...

This week, I am going to get it blessed by a catholic/christian/maori priest and a buddhist monk if I can. No harm in over protecting it.

Mate,forget all that.
Get a cable lock an lock it to something that ain't gonn'a fall over.
You know,like a lamp post,Tongan security guard,or summint else like that.
Feel for ya' dude,Good luck.

Sheesh mate, sell it real quick and buy another bike....

I dont think that you were meant to own this particular bike.
It is jinxed and you will be much happier with another bike.
Cut your loses and let someone else have fun with it...

Hey the dude who rode it, is he offering to pay towards any damages, after he crashed it.? :cool2:

I had leather straps with 1 inch torpedo studs on them... told by the coppers to remove them

Exactly for the purpose of stretching them over the seat when I left so no lil kids would jump on it

I could make some up if you want :-D

Put a 'Beware of Dog' sticker on the fairing. That'll keep people away.

Or better still, put a huge empty rifle holster to the side

Hollowman, what is that in your avatar? Is it what I think it is?
