Here is the story. My roommate and I had our bikes in the driveway infront of our roommates truck (where we always park). He has a jacked up F-150. My buddy left on his bike, leaving mine alone to fend for itself. I decide to run to the store to get some dinner for my girlfriend and I and take my car. While I was gone, my roommate left in his truck and pulled straight out onto my bike. The bike fell breaking the mirror and kickstand, and damaging the slider, clutch lever, wheel, and who knows what else...

Anyway, I just wanted to vent a little.

 

it also screwed up the headlight and fairing. damn

 

wow! tell him have fun covering you're rent for the next few months!

 

That's what room mates are for!

 

Im pretty sure he'd understand while you beat the **** outta him...its only fair

 

+1

 

i like i bike with rash and cracks, it adds character

 

sorry but bikes are meant to look flawless. road rash and all that nonsense doesnt belong near bikes!!!

 

Flawless? Shiat, how long ya been ridin? Mine looks great with all of the character, that way when it gets a little bit of dust and dirt on it I dont have to spend hours cleaning it before I head out to ride for the day.

 

A somewhat crashed/rashed bike is cool. It is like saying, yeah I am a maniac...I crash...so what? Get outa my way or else you'll be next.

I only fix what is unsafe.
