Has a Pointy ever broken down?

Curvys---99-----02
Pointys--03-----08
There are bound to be more problems with any vehicles as they get older,Curvys are all older.

I've seen a pointy break down. It saw a curvy and coudn't contain itself. The frame and front fairing were so much better looking!

A mate said it had a nicer ****, but a measly led rear lamp just wasn't enough!

My pointy had the wiring loom replaced. One of the three warranty jobs it's been in for...

Thanks again for your help that day. I've had both coils replaced - 'bad batch' apparently - but there again running on one cylinder doesn't constitute a breakdown in SV World.

As I recall, we all just fannied around for 10 minutes, me being all yellow an' s**t, then concluded it was broken and you should buy a Honda. Then we all had ice cream. You're welcome.

On the subject of Hondas- I think the only bike to break down at AR06 was Cronos's Blackbird

my Pointy was recovered today although it was due to shoddy workmanship from a stealership by not putting the spark plug cap on correctly

Once in 3yr, everydaying it. Would not start.

Luckily, the fella that parks next to me in the work endures a KR1 stinkwheel, and it never starts. Ever.

There is nothing better than somebody much,much worse off than you to put your prediciment in prospective.

Bit of a push to a slight incline, then a bump and I was off.
