  • I'm an idiot

    god if my bike is running I'm busy breakin it. The situation doesn't even bear repeating one of my friends was sittin there watching the whole thing and I honestly think he was holding back a laugh..........but I was trying to get my bike over a curb, on an uphill incline and i dropped it, literally walking next to it, while it was running, it just couldn't make it over, and slid to the ground, now I need a brake handle, clutch handle, clutch case cover, and probably a crap load of stuff I haven't realized yet. Who's been there ?
    Let your bloodline fuel my youth!!!

          I was fixing my Kat finally got it working (was not running when I bought it), everything was in working order after two weeks of troubleshooting, and parts. I was putting the last exhaust spring on it, and then was gonna go for a ride...finally!!!
          I was working without a wheel jack, tipped it over and broke the oil casing....spilled oil all over all my tools and the floor, plus had to wait 10 days to order the part from the dealership......yikes~~~!!@@!@@@

              I just had my levers replaced, nothing wrong with them just wanted a shinier chrome, if you're interested let me know. But no I have not yet done that...I have of course thought my bike was dead recently and ROLLED it home 2 blocks - pre-being lowered so that was a STRUGGLE only to find out that I had hit the engine kill switch on accident. Life.

                          Every one wants to know about both levers it appears
                          Did it fall? and then you got so mad so you picked it up and pushed it the other way to just even it out?
