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).
