Yeah I am not sure about that funny looking glass receptacle that Rick had in front of him at the bar to start with, I was getting concerned a little especially when he made some brief statement about having had a bourbon before, got me wondering a little it he had been abducted and substituted between the workshop and the bar, then he did the right thing and got a beer.

So what can I say?

O yeah.

Why did God give me two hands to drink with and only one mouth?

the black F$%& fell over on its own today outside winz (like no shit, i came out after signing up for the unemployment benefit and there it was on its side by a tree), now has a lovely big dent in the tank where it hit the tree....currently feeling: pissed off.

I think its cursed.

Dave, you must be riding her to hard.
As she keeps getting so tired and has to have a wee lie-down, now and then to have a rest.

But seriously, BUGGER.

Sounds like my Katana!

The very first thing that happened to it when I got it home was my neighbor downstairs decided to bump her car into it, causing it to fall to the left and hit the wall of the house, bending the mirror 90 deg and cracking the LH plastics, bending sub frame so light doesn't popup etc.

I hadn't even started riding it yet!

Then a few months after that got repaired (long expensive process half paid for by stoopid neighbor) I rode it out to my dad's place for the first time, he took it for a test ride, front wheel slipped on some wet grass at low speed and guess which side it fell on? He was fine thankfully, good dive roll.

Exactly the same damage as before!

Then, earlier this year, a friend was borrowing it and took it for a WOF at the Litchfield testing station and the guy doing the wof half dropped it. Guess which side?
Back to Plastech for the third time (much merriment on thier part, first name basis now ...) tho thankfully not for such major repairs this time round. Got a new clutch out of it and some repairs to some superficial plastic cracking and sub frame bending.

I think she's trying to tell me something ...

I am beginning to concur with that thought you have, bad news man.

Bummer mate, hope it'll all work out without anymore worries.
