    Holy Heck, what was that line that Forrest Gump used???
    Yup, stoopid is as stoopid does......

    I wonder if this is the plot of Torque 2, when the makers of Dumb and Dumber have a go at it.

    I love the prayer in the second post...

    lotsa folk don't check what's behind where they're about to drill through. often, it isn't much $$$ to put right, then again...

    Thats what I'd be doing to my mate if he did that to my bike. Oh dear oh dear, what a mess.

    First I thought this was going to be about drilling pipes (heck.. thats all I use a drill on a bike for).

    But I see now...


    Funny. It's like "re-wiring" a bike by matching the pretty colored wires.. not actually where wires are suppose to go.

    Moral: Don't let anyone mod your bike without you being the one to tell them exactly what you want done (and then you only have yourself to blame)

    Damn silly letting people put electronics in bikes anyway. Should stick to carbs and just electrics while I'm at it putting liquid cooling in was a bad move too! Muwahahaha.
