sup everybody! im new to the forums and i just had to share my recent fatboy experience. btw, there is not another bike i could imagine having! my old man got an 03 and i fell in love then. just picked up my 08 last month. its the epidemy of bike imo!
anyway,
i walk away from her, went into work, came right back out because the alarm and clunk noise summoned me. i rush back only to see her laying on her side!
. just a few days prior i had slammed her down, and parking on a slick surface with a bad angle was not a smart idea with an already sketchy "old" stand setup. the amount of damage was slim to none but, none the less, she was laying down
. keep in mind the 1st payment was just made and i have resorted to ramen for a while. oh and im only 24
my problem at this point is, my recently flawless new baby is now scarred along with my emotions. my feeling are hurt but making a claim to repair (i would imagine a $1500 slip up) or trying to live with the scars is hard for me to decide. i would take it down to have her put back together if money was no issue (but when is that the case). but i cannot hop on her and feel the same as i did when we left the dealer for the 1st time. (only being at one month old that was pretty tragic for me to deal.)
needless to say having this happen to my new fatboy is devistating! its such an awesome ride and i couldnt be more thrilled about having one!
