Probably going to take me 40 minutes to write this because the cuss words start coming pretty easy once ya get going. (350mi)
Bike has 350 mi on it. Was riding with the wife yesterday, stopped at a red light, had some Tom Petty (Break down) jamming on the cd player, looked over at the wife grinning ear to ear and head just a bobbing in the breeze feeling good as all get out.
Went to take a left from the light and did'nt give her enough gas, she stalled and over she went in the blink of an eye.:newsmile08: I was very embarrased with a bunch of cars behind me, finally got her up on the crashbar and went to a parking lot with now 351miles on her
Well I have a small scrape on the crash bar, and the very back tip of the left saddlebag is scratched as well as a tiny mark under the floorboard. To say I was upset is putting it very mild :devil, I then slammed my helmet on the ground which put a nice crack across the top of it so now I need a new one of those as well:bigsmiley12:
I thought about having the bag repainted but then I was thinking ya know what, it's not that big and you can't see it unless your on the ground looking up plus it reminds me that it's now officially mine as I have dropped every bike I have ever owned, just not with 350 miles on it.
For future reference does anyone know where to get some vivd black touch up paint? Does HD sell it?
Ride safe and be careful guys although my mishap was minor it could have been much worse, especially since the car behind me had to jam on his brakes to avoid rear ending me.
