My 18 year old daughter, has a Honda cbr 125, she loves her bike and hasnt had it that long.She is always cleaning it and talking about it (Roll Eyes)
Yesterday she parked it near the kerb as usual,then went into work.Some bar steward drove past,hit the bike, knocked it over, did serious damage and then just drove off! She phoned from work crying, she is gutted.Gonna cost loads to repair it.If i had done that, i would have shit meself and knocked on all the doors to find the owner! What is it with some people?

same old same old, it COULD be a case of no insurance, but over the years I have come across this sort of thing many times and more often than not, its more a case of "its ONLY a motorbike and therefore doesnt warrant worring about"

I once nipped into a shop when on mine, so I just parked up in the gutter, as ya do, and didnt bother to lock it up, I came out of the shop to find some guy SITTING on it and pushing it down the road (only a few feet) when I "asked" him what he was doing? he replied, "oh sorry mate but its in my way I was just moving it so I can get my car in"
he couldnt understand why I was so angry, I said "how would YOU feel if it had been ME sitting in your car just to move it out of my way?"

"well thats different" he said, "it is ONLY a motorbike"
ONLY six F'ng grands worth of motorbike,
I bet his car wasnt worth more than ONE, and suppose he ahd dropped it? I am sure he wouldve come looking for me eager to pay for the damage he had caused....NOT!!
the guy doesnt know how close he came to wearing my crash hat...in a BAD way Nod
old hippy guy
