She was dropped.... - SV650.org

Well after a good winter wrapped up and stored I thought it was time to get the bike out. I called my mate who has my bike in his garage and asked him to get it ready for me. Two hours later I get a call, "I am in hospital and I am sorry but I dropped your bike when I was moving it. Only the indicator is broken though." After being a good mate and checking that he was okay I went to check the bike. Only the indicator my ****! The whole left side is sctrached to hell....... only 957 miles on the clock and in need of repair. B*llocks!

He's in hopsital coz X5uds had a premonition in his dreams about his bike getting toppled.

That's a bummer mate. I'm sure you'll forgive him though.........eventually.

well said tony, its very easy done, done it meself once in the garage, happened so quick I could only kinda break its fall, thankfully it landed on an old mattress that was in the garage at the time waiting to be flung out

as I said, dead easy to do[/quote]

I did it yesterday too. I was backing it in to the garage and lost my balance. I tried to stop it going but pulled my shoulder and ended up with a smashed indicator and front brake lever.

I only got the bike out to clean it ready for the Easter weekend.

Rich sorry to hear that mate but I know how you feel.

My bike is now at a place called bike paints down in Cupar being painted so I am hoping to be back on the road in the next three weeks.
