From: eamo on 26 Mar 2010 13:52 As you lot are wont to enjoy such things, allow me to share my latest accomplishment. Another box ticked in the list of retarded things incompetent persons can do to with a motorcycle. So idiotic is this one that one could say "That'll NEVER happen to me" Until today. My thousand times practiced routine of straddling blackbird to roll it down out of shed and turn it around proceded as normal this morning, though rushed as i was late, to the point that i kick down side stand and dismount to open gate. This time, i kicked down sidestand, and the one time i dont visually confirm said stand being down, is naturally the time it pings back up. Fuckit. I dismount and elegantly get skittled by a toppling blackbird. Being fully fuelled, it did as this bike is oft reported to do when so leaden, pivot about the R&G bung such that the mirror and upperfairing cowl contact the ground, and the cowl cracks. Woohoo! Said cowl on Davidsilverspares is no less than 365 sterlings plus VAT. Excellent. I am quite proud, in fact fulfilled. I shall explain. I had dropped this bike 3 times already, all on the right hand (offside) (starboard) side, which was referred to a wag not unknown in this parish, as the Italian Side (as first time twas on that side of the alps on a swiss trip) in a car park at 0.4 mph. After the subsequent disk lock incident, the italian side was looking extremely tatty and after subsequent stallage droppage type adventure (at minus 0.36mph) a new fairing was purchased. I then considered crash bunggage. It was proposed by said certain wag, that i need only purchase one (1) bung as i only ever drop the bike on the Italian Side, and that two would be a waste of money. After much chin fondling, i was ruled by the lure of symmetry and bought 2 bungs, and hang the expense. So today, i am vindicated in my dual bung purchase, and the Irish Side can share in a feeling of inclusiveness. The upper cowl will ride on, with its manly scars, which will no doubt look all the more manly when i do some DIY welding on it. I have a grazed left (port) (nearside) knee from the domino effect. I'm sure it will polish out. That is all. Eamonn
