Don't Ya Hate it When This Happens
Had the bike parked in the street at lunch time today for no more than 5 minutes and walked out of the shop to find 3 or 4 people standing around your bike. Thought maybe they were admiring my new 2 week old paint job. But no, you find out that some asswipe had backed into your bike and bolted

Re: Don't Ya Hate it When This Happens
Couple of ladies heard a Crunch and saw it happening and yelled out and the car stopped backing up. They thought he was going to get out but he just took off. I asked them if they got his rego, but they couldn't read it. They said it was a white tradies ute with tools in the back. Narrows it down a bit. Anyhow, Lucky they yelled out or he would've done more damage.

Re: Don't Ya Hate it When This Happens
Just goes to show were society is going, no one want to put there hand up when they fuckup. Dam shame about the bike Jed are you able to replace the light only or do you have to replace the whole unit?
Re: Don't Ya Hate it When This Happens
Fark!
Straight into the headlight like that???
At least you've got it narrowed down a bit.
There can't be too many blind tradesmen around!

Re: Don't Ya Hate it When This Happens
Really sorry to hear that happened - I'd be looking at what shops are nearby and what security/surveillance they have. Even if they wont (can't) show you the tapes, the police can ask to see them!

Re: Don't Ya Hate it When This Happens
Reminds me of when Ron's ZZR was reversed into out the front of his wifes work in lavo a few years ago
The guy stopped but was pretty much destitute, shit banger car, no insurance... etc etc...
Only thing to do really is suck it up and fix it. Sorry to hear it happened to you mate.

Re: Don't Ya Hate it When This Happens
Yep. Nothing i can really do about it now. Have already ordered a new headlight. Just a pain in the arse more than anything. I only just got it back together after respraying it.
