It's a beautiful day and I drop my friend the yoga teacher off at her studio and go sneak a burrito from Del Taco because shes a health freak mamma and when I visit she makes me eat rabbit food. So I can't find a spot to park and end up parking across the lot, walk to Del Taco and when I get my burrito on, call my daughters to check in on them in Portland and walk back to my bike. I look over and don't see it so I panic and run that way and guess where it is? laying on a curb stopper, Some idiot knocked it over!!! Noone is around of course to fess up so , i pick it up, hurt my manhood doing it as that thing weighs alot and look at it and almost get tears, 600 miles on it and its got some scratches. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! it really sucks when someone saves and saves and saves to get something they love so much and some jerk undoes it all in one move!!. I had my tank bag on it so it saved it alittle but it still hurts.:yell:

Sorry Arin! The first knock over is always the hardest! Mine happened when it wasn't even 2 weeks old!

Your right. But, I also know its safe from any jerk off trying to knock it over, or stealing it.
I had a conniption when I dropped it and chipped paint off... Could you imagine what would happen if someone sole it or knocked it over? They would be putting ME in jail!!!

Been there too!
Someone once knocked my new GSXR-750 over in a parking lot up at
Government Camp. No note, nothing from the person who did it.
Spilled fuel clogged the airbox so I had to tear the bike apart to get it
cleaned so it would even run.
I guess we have to take both the good and bad that life throws at us.

i put some plastic wax on it and got some of it out, then my daughter came with the fingernail polish to hide a bit, i made it to portland in one piece, talk about the most peaceful thing, going thru the santiam pass when its warm and the sun is shining, its almost 200 miles but what a beautiful day

So sad.
When we scratch it it's diff. But when some moron does it and doesn't even have the decentcy (?) to own up................:pityfool-MrT:
Friend of mine has like 200 miles on his new gsx750 and it went down on it's own of the side stand in gravel. All scratched. :(
Happy you got your sunshine fix!
