Default Bikes Broken

Coming into work today just going into th eLImehouse lnk I look down to check my speed all my dials are dead, then bike starts running really badly. Get to the bottom of the slope and it conks out. Pushing the bike out of the tunnel I manage to scrape the fairing on the kerb Massive thank you to the courier who ran back down and help me push it out.

Call father inlaw who's got a van and get the bike to the dealers. My alternator fuse had melted. The guys at Boyer look at it a bit longer and work out whats going on, basically my loom is cooking itself so I need a new one covered under warranty thank god.

So no bike for a week till they get the parts in BAH.

Sorry to hear of your woes. Similar thing happened to my SV a couple of months back, had to spend 2 weeks on the tube.

I've still got the sword and a suit of armour I used if you want to borrow it

Will they repair fairing damaged in accident due to bike conking out?

No such luck! It was me pushing it too close to the kerb. The ever resourceful father inlaw sprays bikes as a hobby so he's going to sort it out for me.

Good news is the Mrs is letting me have my old SV back off her untill the trumpet has been fixed.

You're too honest. a better story might have worked.
But at least it sounds like it's all working out
