Well, um, truth be a bit duller ......left the bike at the fuel pumps, cashier looked out the window at a reversing 4x4....

Cashier said: "I hope he's seen that bike"

Me: "Huh?"

4x4: "crunch"

Picked the bike up - rear of tank badly squashed (fell against a post) - apart from that "Only" the usual levers out of square and various scratches.

Swapped insurance details and as the pumps were next to the dealer bike purchased from (new - 2 months ago ) got it booked in for an insurance quote next week.

Although not happy, I really was not that upset - more annoyed cos' the fooker never reversed over it for a full write off.

Stick to the first part of the story I like it. Once all the OEM parts are on it'll be like new
