What's that I can feel?
 
Hi All,

Sorry for being quiet recently - lots on...

Anyway, went out on the Blue one last night to footy training (clocking up the mileage :wink: ). When I got to the top of our road, and felt a sudden bump in my back.
So I slowed down to about 10mph, and felt behind with one hand, and suddenly grabbed a handful of "Security Chain" :shock: :shock:

You can imagine the profanities that came out :oops:

So I stopped and as I let go of the chain it drops to the floor, out of the bag on the pillion seat.

What a silly sod - I had forgotten to zip the bag back up after taking the security chain off :shock: :shock: :shock:

Won't be doing that again...what a nob ed!!!

Let this be a lesson folks - more haste less speed Mr Mass.
Some would appose this line of thinking though. :?

Lucky it didnt fall in the moving parts :shock:
And lucky you didnt loose it, what with the cost of them :shock:
Bout time bike manufacturers came up with some integral compartment or even better retracting high tensile cable.

we were behind a zr6 on a motorway once, in my mates tuned up nissan sylvia.

i was just lecturing about why he shouldnt tailgate (he was right behind the ninja)

he was spouting his usual b****cks about his brakes being on top form, he was an excellent driver and his reactions were super sharp ect ect

when just as he shut his mouth - the security chain comes flying out of the ninjas backpack (it wasnt done up) hurtling towards him,
it goes under the car and rips his new shiny exhaust off . . .



justice served :twisted:

I find that they are excellent at stopping you when used together, it's like chucking an anchor out back!

So I guess your starting small and trying out the chain first.

You really are frightening :wink:
