: My New 1000rr Has to Be Cursed

Ok, I've had nothing but bad luck with my new bike. Here is a rundown.

Day 1: It's raining when it comes in. I'm all excited anyway and gimpsta hookes me up with a trailor. Well, after I get the bike home I decide it'll be nice to return the trailor that I borrowed. I back it into is Suburban and nick his bumper. About $100 in damage

Month 1: I got my tags! Yay. Go to Autozone because putting them on the bike seems like a good idea. Well, I failed to put it in gear because I'm stupid and I'm on a small hill and it rolls forward off the kickstand. Now I've got custome rash on the left side.

Month 2: My week long vacation starts today. Yay, I've got a week off with no work and figure I'll get some good riding in. Leave home and head to Fayetteville. I get to campus and yield for a pedestrian and the guy behind me doesn't. His car wedged itself on top of the rear tire and my bike was standing up without help of my feet or the kickstand. I wasn't hurt at all...it really felt like I had slipped into gear or something (which is what I thought happened) until I realized my bike wouldn't lean left or right. Had to have 2 tow trucks pull us apart.

My bike is *probably* ridable but I'll let Action Honda tell me one way or another. His car had more damage than I would expect (busted radiator for sure).

Sh$T, I thought loosing my keys was a bad day. It amazes me who unobservant people are, They sit in their box and hit the pedels without a care in the world. I had almost the same thing happen to me except I ended up on his hood when I rolled off he offered me $50 not to call the cops when I refused he took off.

That is really an ugly pic. As was said, glad you're OK. You should have kicked in the entire side of the car. Just say you didn't mean to, the sun was in your eyes and you didn't see it.

I know you dont want to hear it but hopefully the bike is totalled. You dont want any hidden surprises down the road. You deserve a new bike.

I sold a job to a guy that services the local grocery stores and he told me he was ontop of one of the buildings the other day and heard a horindous crash when he twirled around to see a guy flying threw the air. He said a car hit him sitting at a red light and knocked him about 200 feet. He said that he was pretty sure the guy got killed. The guy on the cycle was on a harley :x

Well, the bright side, if you can call it that, is that it is not a matter of if, it is a matter of when, so you just got one when out of the way, lowering your odds, and at least you weren't rashed.

I was in my brand new truck the day before my B-day, I was in the parking lot at work and I was stopped waiting for this work truck with a diamond plate bumper in front of me to go somewhere, he had just stopped, there was about a car length and a half between us. He throws his truck in full speed reverse, and Bam! Before I had enough time to react, he slams into me, rips off the whole front end of my brand new truck! I was in PT for months, from a damn parking lot accident. Worst thing is, because it was a parking lot, I had to pay my deductible cause of some stupid private property 50% rule, even though he admitted he plowed into me! But, I figured the bright side, 10 years of driving, never had or been in one accident, so at least I got it out of the way!
